Isnt there a sensor on the stock plenum that screws in the bottom towards the rear? Air temp sensor? Would imagine that would go there.
one I just worked on was plugged fwiw.

Yes, IAT sensor is there but it's on the third hole. It's visible on my pic.

From looking at the pics, it looks like 1/2" NPT pipe plug, but it may be 3/8".

yeah the PO moved the sensor to the air cleaner, thinking it'll advance timing, all those BS band-aids when really all they need is Autoprom/TunerPro RT and work on the bin files. Why did I leave it there cause my BS shop decided it was a non issue and lazyed out on it, beside, it it goes bad I don't have to dismantle.

the others are plugged...

I like the flat black Mad Max super ram look, not too sissy looking....
