Email the owner at this website and he should be able to hook you up with one from procharger
www.tenperf.com
Ebay would be another place to check but I don't see any on there at the moment.

the quality control on them is fair at best, normally when you blowthrough them, you should have the carb mounting flange of the bonnet machined flat to get a good seal, and keep from having a boost leak.

k&n makes a decent one, you just have to have it machined flat before you put boost through it.

I picked up a turbonetics carb hat for $75ish 2 months ago. Everything even fits under the stock hood! It's on the 89 Camaro, Accel Pro-ram intake, Force EFI 4 barrel throttlebody. Everyone else wanted twice as much...
