Here's a few shots of mine when I first got it installed. Got all the couplers, clamps, and rubber elbows from intakehoses dot com. You would need to eliminate the ABS block for this to work.
From the 90mm TB to the 4" K&N filter -----> Stock LT1 rubber 90deg elbow, 85mm MAF, 4" coupler, 4" straight pipe, 4" 45deg elbow, 4" straight pipe (can't see it), 4" 90deg elbow, 4" straight pipe, 4" K&N Filter.
The LT1 rubber elbow fits perfectly over a 90mm TB.

ya, tthats very understandable. i think i am goin to do something similar but mine will be sitting right ontop of the radiator and slightly infront of it. since i do alot of street driving i want to keep as much heat as i can off of the filter so i will bend some sheet metal to isolate the filter a little bit so it can still draw cold air from the front and from my ws6 hood.
