CAI for carbs?

Does anyone make something for carbs that is a cold air intake? Any parts available or is it something that is going to have to be custom fabricated? I would rather not have the huge donut air filter on the top of the motor, move it to the front of the car, maybe behind the bumper. I have seen the twin snorkels but I just don't like the way they look, altho quite functional. Any ideas? I have been looking around the sponsors sites and have come up empty handed. thanks

You'd have to fabricate it.

thats really what I was thinking I would have to do, which isn't a big deal but I was curious if there was anything out there. Now if I could only make it look like its NOT a hack job!

Re: CAI for carbs?

you could try some thing like this it may fit your carb. I can't remeber if a tbi and carbs have same size necks. although you may have to buy some extra tubing which I noticed their selling at advance and auto zone now.

There is a seller on ebay selling a dual snorkle setup made of some type of high grade plastic. Looks good I found it a few days ago but cant seem to dig it up again. It was only $35 or so complete.
