Truck Aircleaner Setup on Camaro

I know that a lid of a 350 pickup will on a camaro's airclean setup, but will the whole truck aircleaner setup fit under the hood??

It should fit, but what you'll probably have to do is remove the spacer ring that chevy puts around the TBI. As for the hoses and stuff from the air cleaner that shouldn't be a big deal either, may have to slightly reroute it. If you do, try to run it somewhere where it'll get colder air...

that tbi spacer ring thingy is in the ultimate tbi tech pages right? Which hose are you talking about, im trying to get a aircleaner setup that comes out on the driver side if possible, So i can set up a cold air setup.......I found pic of the setup.

The spacer ring that I'm talking about just sits right on top of the tbi and the aircleaner will sit right on top of that. I can't think of any of the truck TBI aircleaners that will come out on the drivers side, most will exit over the passengers side, over the battery. You might also want to check on a monte carlo intake, they tend to be much bigger and have a larger diameter hose than ours.

I made a custom ram air setup for mine using the 2.8 liter setup. Its pretty sweet, takes air in from the grill and looks totally stock, if I can find a camera I'll send you a pic.

Send that one picture over though, I'd be interested in seeing it.

I'm guessing it might just be a little smaller. There is a good chance however that it'll be the same as the truck aircleaner. The lid is the same as the one in the pic you sent if I remember right...
