Aftermarket 2.8L V6 Air Cleaner?

Ok, I have a 1984 firebird with a 2.8 V6 and it has a rochester 2 bbl carb and I know its expensive but bad. Ok. So, I love the idea of a chrome, round air cleaner on top of the carb. Is there any way I can get one. (My carb is rectangular?)

DUDE I'VE BEEN WONDERING ABOUT THIS TOO!!!!! I had the guy at advanced auto parts pretty baffled lol I was thinking about just modifying the bottom of the pan just cutting it to use with an aftermarket top but I wanted a bigger filter so it's not smart IMO.

That's exactly what i did I just cut around the bottom and I bought a chrome 10 inch air cleaner lid. It looks pretty B/A. I'd do it. It only took me like 20 minutes for something that will help you in the long run. I'm going to take pictures eventually. Good luck my friend. Add me on facebook. Anthony Castagnaro and it says I live in Las Vegas. Add me I can help you out.
