Showstopper's Roto-Fab radiator cover fit Cold Air Inductions CAI?

Does anyone know if the Showstopper's radiator cover that is cut to fit the Roto-Fab will fit with the Cold Air Inductions cold air intake? I can tell the one for ADM will not work. I've searched, left v-mail and sent message to Showstoppers. I'm impatient and haven't heard back from Showstoppers yet.

Thanks

What does the bend on the intake tube look like? Is it a sharp 90 degree bend or a more gradual one like the Rotofab intake? I asked if my injen would fit the Rotofab one and they said yes, though the gap between the intake and the cover may not be even all the way across.

Thanks stieger. The bend seems to be similar to Rot-Fab's but I'm more concerned with the sensor. That air sensor, what ever it's called, that pluggs into the air tube, seems to be right where the radiator cover would be.

Does the sensor come at an angle or does it just jut straight out from the intake tube

Ah-ha! Thanks Darth_Emma, I appreciate that.

stieger, see how the sensor sits? That's what I was worried about. Darth_Emma has a supercharger too, which I don't. So this will work for sure. That's the Roto-Fab radiator cover. The way Showstopper names that piece, leads to a little confusion if you don't have Rot-Fab or ADM.

Now I can order this thing.

Thanks for your help guys. I hope others will be helped by this too.

If you pm showstopper in these forums and tell him what combination you have then he can make sure your radiator cover will work with your parts. He custom makes them if he needs to.

Mhm. He is hooking me up with a hydro-carbon one for my injen.

I just got a call back from Pete at Showstopper. He had installed the Roto-Fab radiator cover with the Cold Air Inductions CAI. It does fit. CONFIRMED

The Roto-fab radiator cover has mounting brackets which it attaches to via 4 push fasteners. It has 4 recessed areas for the push pins as well as a punch formed area around the radiator cap for good cap access. Ours has a continuous flange on the backside for rigidity.The cover pictured above is not ours. It appears to be identical in shape to ours though. I don't know who makes that one.

Future reference, the Roto-Fab radiator cover also fits with the TTI/Granatelli Twins Kit...

I would post up a pic but I'm in the process of repainting mine...
