Passenger Side Fresh Air Inlet?

I was wondering if any trucks came with a passenger side Air duct/inlet I was entertaining the idea or putting a dual snorkel setup on my 85 and wondered if any trucks came with pass are inlet or if anyone has done this ?

The core support has a knockout for it but i havent seen anything other than drivers side inlet.

well up until a few weeks ago i didn't even have that duct, it was MIA. I had 8 bucks so i went and got one from the chevy dealership. my dad said it was worth it since it was designed to run with one, and at 8 bucks you can't go wrong.

I am thinking of adding a second inlet on my 454 air breather but i would like to find an air duct that matches the passengers If possible

I got a second pass side fitting for the core support & plan to flip it for use on the drivers side. You'll need to re-route the a/c condensor fittings/lines a little (@ least on mine I'll need to) but there should be a spot big enough to run the second air inlet.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
