any suggestions on an air intake on swap?
I'm almost done with my ls swap on my 68 camaro and was wondering how everybody else was running their air intakes. I will be also using a intake air temp sensor and maf. If you could include a picture that would be cool. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks Tommy

I'm running a simple system...airaid tube with a conical spectra air cleaner. I bought the airaid tube kit from summit. I drilled a hole and mounted the AIT sensor near the air cleaner. I plan on sanding the tube down and painting it to match the car.
Check this link out....guy did an awesome job...This is where I got the idea for the airaid tube.

Do you remember the air raid number? Possible to get that upper hose part number from you? I don't think my upper hose will work with any air intake because it passes right infront of the throttle body. Are you running a maf?

I assume you mean the upper rad hose...not sure ...I think it was a 5.3 truck hose from carquest auto parts. Let me look around and get back with you.
Yes, I am running a MAF. It's connected to the air cleaner like this attached image. I plan on getting rid of the flexable elbow and using the rigid airaid material.

Here's mine with a custom cold air box. The cold air box is sealed off from the rest of the engine bay and fed with cool air from an unused fog light hole.
I got all the silicon hoses from http://www.siliconeintakes.com/

I really need to build a shroud around mine. I have been fooling with carbon fiber lately, I would like to make one out of that.

I bought my pieces from intakehoses.com. I bought a 90 reducing elbow & a 45 elbow with clamps and the tubing. I then routed it to the inside fender behind the headlight. I braced it by welding a tab on the fender support and using a clamp to hold it in place. The AIT sensor I put in the 45 elbow. It can be seen in pic by the fender support. I polished the aluminum tubing after all the mock up was done. The air cleaner was bought from Auto Zone.
