anything is possible, you would either have to pan the hood over to the carb, leaving a hole for the aircleaner to stick through, and build a box around the carb to isolate it from the engine bay. Anything is possible, just requires some planning and some fabrication.

Re: Fab up ram air intake for carbed 350
A little over a year ago I fabbed up a sheet metal plenum to fit on a buddy's TBI Camaro so he could hook up the TPI Y-pipe intake. It was pretty cool looking. It looked alot like a mini ram. I don't have it or any pics anymore though. It was very, very easy to make once I had all of the hood clearance measurements. I'm going to make one for my car one of these days but in a little different style. It mounts to the top of the carb/TBI just like a regular air cleaner and it's held on by the wing nut.

Re: Fab up ram air intake for carbed 350
Thanks for the info guys.. I like the one from JEG's... but I think I am going to fab one by grafting two stock filter boxes. I think its going to be easy, and with a hi-flo filter, it should work good.
