LT1 w/ stock TPI air inlet setup

Anyone have pictures of an LT1 in a 3rd gen. where they used the air filter setup from the TPI system? Is it possible? I really like the way it looks w/ the stock air inlet setup.

If it's the one for a Camaro, it's really restrictive and someone dyno tested this idea and noticed a huge difference vs an open air element, the Trans Am is still restrictive but not as much as the Z28 air intake.

Re: LT1 w/ stock TPI air inlet setup

I have it on mine actually, I am going to get rid of it over the winter while cleaning up the engine bay and run a K&N cone that I had on my LHS. I figure my motor has ALOT more potential with the mods I have and this could be holding me back a little bit.
Heres a pic..
