Default Changing filter element in Callaway Honker

Need help in changing the filter element. I removed the 4 **** screws that appear to be holding the assembly together but still can't get it apart. I don't see anything else holding it together. Front visability limited because of the hood and radiator. ????

Disconnect it from the throttle body also. Once that is done and the four **** style screws are loose, that's it. It might get a little stuck just from hot & cold extremes. Just gently pry it and eventually it will pop loose. I know there is not a lot of room to work. I double checked mine just before I sent this to make sure. Good luck and Merry X-mas.

you have to slide it up as there are two pegs at the front instead of screws, so disconecct the air bridge, remove four screws, then slide up the shroud till the pegs unhook.
Lift it out
