82 carbed z28 hood issues help plz?
 
with my intake and hood a 14inch aircleaner wont fit under the stock hood i would like to run a cold air intake sorta to the driver side battery slot.

I know they make them but cant find it its a 90 degree that fits ontop of a carb then u can run ur hose off of it to a air filter i cant fint one ive seen a 14inch duel setup but thats still to big.

Spectre makes "carb hats", but in order to fit under a stock hood, you need to use the reduced height version, which don't flow as well as the full height versions.

Also check out ramairbox.com.

BTW, drop base 14x3 air cleaners fit under a stock hood.
