3rd gen LS1 CAI 90* elbow off the TB

I'm fabbing up my own custom 4" CAI for my LS1 in my '91 GTA. I'm going to use semi truck 4" exhaust pipe for the tubing. I need a 90* elbow to go from the TB to the MAF. Then I'm going to run a piece of straight 4" pipe over to the right side where the charcoal canister used to be. It will then go 90* down, I'll cut a hole where the charcoal canister used to be, and then I'm going to mount a huge K&N cone under the car. Should get plent of cold air. What do you guys think? Where can I get a elbow like that??

Thanks!!

-Jeremy

You will need a 90 elbow that goes from 4 to 3.5 inchs, the maf sensor is 3.5. I just finished mine last week, ran a 4 to 3.5 elbow, then a 3.5 to 4 inch reducer on the other side of the maf, then some 4 inch tubing, to a 4 inch 45 degree elbow, then some more 4 inch tubing, and finaly to my filter. I bought it all online, can't remember exactly where but if you need to know just pm me and i can find out for you.
