      1980 F Body Air Intake

      So I am nearing the end of this build and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on a air intake on a 1980 Trans Am. I need to put a MAF sensor in there as well. Any input helps. Keep in mind this is by no means a high dollar build, it is more of a budget build.

      Silicone elbow off the TB...some 4" aluminum pipe...silicone couplers for the MAF...big filter on the end.

      I didn't do anything too fancy with mine but I think it still looks decent and does the job.

      That looks nice and clean. I just ordered the parts and am waiting on them now. I am doing the same car, not as clean as yours though

      airaid 4” “u build it” kit, spectra shield for 2nd gen Camaro.

      tube cut, superglued, sanded and painted black for now. I’d like to paint to match down the road.
