C5 Air Box for Donaldson/Blackwing
The instructions state to Mark the outer edge with marker - measure in 1" and use a stright edge to mark the cut line.
My question is do you cut the complete area under the filter or a 1" strip? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I installed a Blackwing recently, and I'm not sure what you mean.
The only thing I had to cut was the rubber adapter between the Blackwing itself and the Mass Air Flow sensor.

, as I am assuming you are referring to dave68's Cold Air Mod to the radiator shroud.

If you have a screenless MAF, you might want to rethink the Cold Air Shroud. These have been known to give rough idle and other driveability problems due to the increase of air turbulance.

Several members over the years have reported this.
