O.K. I've built a 350 and put it into my 86' Z28 and have a Performer RPM intake along with a Speed Demon 650 Dbl. pumper anyways here's where I need help. Has anyone know where you can get a ram air cleaner for my car. ( using stock hood so clearence is a issue) Thanks.

 

Im not sure how you are planning on getting ram-air with the stock hood?

 

Hello again and sorry it took so long to reply (been out of town working) but anyway I was wanting to run 2 ducts from the front bumper maybe behind fog lights or something, and run them into the air cleaner (a enclosed air cleaner) so I'm not just sucking in the hot air from under my hood. Like a regular open element. So I don't know if it's necessarily ram air but that's what I'm going for thanks again and any suggestions would be apprieciated.

I think that is going to be the best you can do. I dont think you will get the air intake near the foglights, because there is no good way to get the intake tubes around the radiator support.

 

I have a camaro 305 HO air cleaner with dual snorkels that originally attatched to some hoses to grab fresh air, was factory equipment on I think the 84 camaro 4 barrel HO motor. Hard to find air cleaner, GM has discontinued it. I used this air cleaner on one of my monza's years ago, I removed both high beam headlights and connected the duct work to that, although this was my daily driver at the time, it was also not a show car, more of a street sleeper, so removing the headlights didn't bother me, besides I am old school, was a popular thing to do in the 60's anyway, and it was very affective. Probably not something you would want to do though.
Another option that I have currently on another monza (this one has single headlights so couldn't do the high beam thing)
What I did is found a "carb hat" that is used in a turbo application. Buick in the early 80's had a turbo 3.8 with a 4 barrel carb. These are also hard to find but you can buy very nice aftermarket pieces from vendors for current blower setups etc..they are polished aluminum usually and very expensive but they are nice. Anyway, I found one from an old turbo buick, it bolts right onto the holley carb, has a 3 inch inlet, I connected a short piece of 3 inch hose with clamps and then custom fabbed the tubing from mandrel bends over to the passenger side inner fender where the charcoal cannister used to be (this is a monza) may be different area for your car, I then made the hole larger in the inner fender and ran the piping through that and on the end I installed a K&N cone filter which is right on the side of the radiator grabbing all kinds of fresh air right behind the front bumper. I then had the entire setup power coated silver for a nice finish. This may also work for you but takes alot of fab work. It's funny when I pop the hood people think I am hiding a turbo somewhere But it does work and I can keep the stock hood, very sneaky stuff. Just some options, Larry.
