Looking for Part for S/C Engine

I have always used a vortech S/C and have taken thermistor's and put them into the intake horn to get air intake temps. Since Vortech doesn't use an intercooler, I decided to build my own. I just got for X-Mas my 4 core intercooler and all the piping. What I am missing is the intake horn like the ones ATI Procharger uses. Instead of the air intake from the drivers side of the car, I want it from the passenger side. I have seen the ABS plastic ones but would like to purchase a chome one. Anyone have any ideas where to get one of these.

TB shape and size is the same for TPI and LT1, you could use one of the Trickflow pieces. Vortech also makes one I believe

Re: Looking for Part for S/C Engine

I have scoured through trickflow website and still can't locate them. I will have to call their tech reps and have them locate it. Surprising enough, I have only found the abs plastic pieces everywhere I look. I have seen a few cars with them over time but can't find them now.

Ok have the part from Trick flow but need to make a 4 inch spacer because the air horn will hit the tensioning pulley. Trick flows aluminum piece is really nice but not long enough.
