Default Cold air intake - 1st gen camaro

I've done a little searcing, but haven't found what I'm looking for.. Does anybody know if there is a company that offers pre-mandrel bent air intake tubes for LSX-1st gen camaros? Or even made to order?? I've found a lot of the companies on the web that offer the 90's, 45's, tubes, reducers, etc, but I would like as few a seams/clamps as possible for a cleaner look.. I see these on a lot of 1st gens.. Just not sure where they are getting them! Seems like by now somebody would offer them all made up! Thanks.

No problem. I really liked how clean and simple that car was. Thats probably why I remembered it.

I don't know of any that are pre-made as every setup varies. (Battery location, rad hose configuration, RS or non-RS etc)

Most guys have them fabbed up, or make thier own.

I had mine fabbed up, best to have the car there to do it as well.

Spectre has a kit that you can set up the way you want it and then send it back to be welded up and polished.

lmao
of course it is
it's speed inc
capitalism alive and well

that $75 tube looks nice though, and injection molding isn't cheap
not knocking speed inc, bought plenty from them, they're not any more expensive than most other places and they build some sweet rides

might pick that tube up for myself
