Dear Customer:
Your new Banks Stinger™ system is a unique combination of air intake and
exhaust components designed to make the most of your engine’s power
potential. By removing intake and exhaust restrictions, and providing cooler
intake air, your engine can produce more power at a higher level of efficiency.
If your driving habits remain the same, your fuel mileage should go up, and you
can run on the same octane fuel you are accustomed to using.
If you have any questions concerning the installation of the Banks Stinger kit,
please call Gale Banks Engineering at (626) 969-9600 between 8:00 am & 5:00
pm (PT) and ask for the service department.
Thank you.

The Banks Motorhome Stinger system is
designed to fit Class “A” 460 Ford chassis
combinations. Because of different equipment
layouts used by various coach builders, some
accessories and components may have to
be relocated to accommodate the air intake
components of the Banks Stinger system.
