vehicles, the interference to the shield may be
much more severe, requiring bending of the heat
shield. different brake line configurations have
been used by the factory.
on the left frame rail adjacent to the rear of
the engine, remove the nut that secures the
hydraulic lines and cables to the top of the frame
rail (see Figure 3 ). note: not all vehicles have
the hydraulic lines shown in Figure 3 , however
the nut and bolt should be preent.
drop two 5 ⁄
16
I.d. x 11 ⁄
16
o.d. flat washers onto
the threads where the nut was removed.
These will act as spacers for the heat shield.
tighten the forward bolt that attaches the
heat shield bracket (at the slotted hole)
to the frame rail. check that the heat shield has
clearance between it and the exhaust tubes, to
prevent rattles during engine operation. adjust as
necessary.
on the right side of the engine, wrap the
6 x 14” heat blanket, provided, around the
brake line and vapor recovery line where they
pass the exhaust manifold tubing. use the wire
ties, provided, to secure the heat blanket to the
brake and vapor recovery tubing. do noT wrap
the heat blanket around the exhaust manifold
tubing! The heat blanket will not survive if it is in
direct contact with the exhaust tubing.

the banks powerpack cold air induction components
are designed to extend the factory air intake path so
that cooler onutside air can be picked up from direct-
ly behind the vehicle’s grille. These components
include a molded banks super-scoop™, 4” diameter
flexible tubing and installation hardware. Figure. 5 .
shows a typical hook-up of the air intake compo-
nents as they tie to the factory system. The super-
scoop also serves as a water separator to drain out
any rain water that may enter through the grille.
the banks powerpack cold air induction package is
intended to fit a number of motorhome body config-
urations. because each coach builder has a different
layout of behind-the-grille components, there can be
no one set installation procedure for the banks ram-
air package. The following instructions are intended
as a guideline for installing the ram-air system. also,
some coach builders may have installed difficult to
relocate components (such as air conditioning freon
piping or heater hoses) in the areas where the banks
ram-air is normally mounted. In these cases, the
installer will have to find an alternate location for the
ram-air components, or omit these pieces that are
impossible to mount.
