Ram Air Kit
Here is a ram air kit I saw on a Ebay cruise- through that some of you may have interest in.

There was one of those on Ebay a while back. I wonder if someone is using junkyard parts and welding skills to make a little money?
It looks like a great idea... Slonaker |

Not bad, but I would still rather have a ram air box.
The advantage to this one is, if you have a picky visual inspector he/she would be more likely to allow this, then a ram air box.

You guys know you could get one of these off of the old 5.0 liter H.O. Camaros...the third gens. they had a similar set up that was very nice.

I like it for the reason Phoenix mentioned. if I had that, even in a state or county that was really strict on inspections, I would not be worried about it passing.

I think I'd rather have Mike's setup just for the reason that it has larger in ports to flow more air into the carb. Plus his looks better IMO
