Blackwing Installation.
Installed my blackwing yesterday. I could not bring myself to glue the mounting hardware in. Tested glue and let set overnight but I was still able to break it off. So a trip to the local hardware store and I pick up 2-6/32 Jack Nuts , 2-6/32 x 1 1/2" long bolt (used to set Jack Nuts in place, 2- 6/32 x 1" long chrome bolts Allen head and 2- Chrome washers.
I took mounting bar put Jack nuts on back side slipped jack nuts into opening and inserted 6/32 x 1 1/2 bolt tightened down to set jack nuts.
Removed both and Jack nuts set in place. Reinstalled mounting place with Chrome bolts and washer and now a solid mount.
Hopes this helps others. Parts cost $6.85 (Chrome bolts and washers uped cost could do for 1/2 with standard bolts and washers I used chrome for better look.).
Sorry about the picture quality but took in a hurry.

I know one tuner that recommends the Blackwing with a cold air box, but you don't hear much about them on the forum. Where can I get in touch with them?
