Does anyone have a XR Sprint and can show me there.

[Sprint]

Air intake snorkle that attaches to the air filter box.

The reason is im having trouble with a buyer who claims the one i just sold to him is not off a Sprint, Im kinda annoyed about this as my car is on the sprint registry and won trophies.

Anyone who can provide pics of the part will be greatly appreciated.

here is a few pics i found

lol i was going to go through my pics for ya, but i see you found them already.

if you need a better photo let me know as i can pull mine out if need be, might take a day or two to get around to it, i also have a standard eb 5.olt to compare to if need be.

[Sprint]

x8falconsrule i want to read more about your sprint, any chance of some updates?

[XR Martin]

Look the same as the regular V8 ones to me?
Was the purchaser thinking it would have been an AU Tickford one?

The rubber hose is the same as all the V8 no different . Xr8 sprint and GT are all the same

ok i will endevour to get some pics over the weekend for you. i can't remember there being any differences, but have never done a proper back to back comparisson.

Giant, there isn't a lot to update unfortunantely, due to other commitments the sprint has been sitting idle for a while. the main objective for this build is to subtle mod the things i don't like, but retain the essence of the car, and be able to return to stock anytime, so i purchased an eb monty to donate some interior and trim bits and have set about using these to do the mods.

so far i have fitted black carpet, painted all the console and lower dash black, seat and door cards will be retrimmed when finances allow. sub install in boot is progressing, with a full removable boot install the eventuall goal.

mechanically i will be fitting a full exhaust, and some dress up bits, maybe fitting the monty motor and stroking to 347, again when finances allow.

i really should do a proper update some time.

this is what i was thinking too as he claims the one i sent was not big enough to be a GT one he said.

I know people do put Au ones on.

awesome sprint BTW, any more pics???

[v8falconsrule]

the only natable difference is the ribs inside the airbox itself, i don't see they'd make any difference, i think its just a change between 1992(monty) and 1994(sprint).

[Bossxr8]

I had a 92 EB Fairmont V8 that had the ribs in the airbox, so i'd say its just a running change. 93 ED Ghia V8 had it too.
