well yur in luck if the front will clear it. that airbox was made for the lt1 t/a's and was the most effective "ram air" 4thg ens ever had from the factory. look at the underside of a ram air suncoast hood and you'll see why

it sucks in air by the windshield, like the old cowls that come up on the 70 chevelles. When its cold out and im at a stop you can see it "breathing" on the windshield "venting out warm air" its a cool effect
