I have two full Cadillac air cleaner setups available. These bolt right on 4150 (Holley style), Quadrajet or TBI throttle bodies. This full setup would make it fairly easy to build a ram air intake on a variety of cars. They're a pretty cool GM product not many people know about.

$100 each

I thought someone would be on this by now. Bolts right on a FiTech TBI, Holley Sniper/Terminator, etc.

But can be very easily found in a scrapyard

Yes, that’s where I found mine. Am I asking that much money for you or something?

Gas, entry fee to the scrapyard, time/energy to find a car (if it’s there), remove that part, and ultimately paying for it adds up in cost. I’ve also cleaned mine up. They built these engines for just a couple years.

He's always trolling WTB/ for sale posts, but just because the top bolts on doesn't mean the rest of it will fit easily or without work. Looks like a good starting point for sure, but the lack of interest shouldn't be too surprising, as anyone willing to work to mod this is probably willing to spend an hour going to the salvage yard. At the same time, the people too lazy to go get their own are probably too lazy to mod yours. If you were to come up with a bottom part that took the rest of the work out of it for people with camaros, chevelles, etc then I bet you could make some decent money.

I just thought someone with some tools could build themself a bracket for the air box rather easy. I’d build a bracket setup but it would be hard to build something universal for so many different cars and/or engines. Probably just a lot more people wanting to do LS engines instead of modifying their traditional v8’s these days.

yes I do use the classified for quite a few purchases , I guess I should have been not so short . Mr chuckd71 basically said what I was thinking , I'm not one to judge the cost ,nor condition . what I was trying to say in a very bad way was that it is easily found in a scrap yard and my 2 cent opinion is that if you were looking for something such as this you may not come here to find it , you might just go scour your local yard . my apologies if I came across rude or short that wasn't my intent , in the future I will make sure I'm a little more clear . cheers

Short or not, I still don’t see your point to make a point about mentioning it can be found in a junkyard. I’m not going on other people’s posts saying I can find stuff on eBay, Facebook, junkyards, etc. You knew what you were writing. You wrote it.
