Default air filter dimensions

Hello,

Doing a LS1 into a 65 impala swap.

I am curious what the dimensions of the 90 degree air filters are.

I am almost ready to make the final welds for my radiator brackets and wanted to be sure I can fit some sort of air filter in there.

Thanks for any leads for info.

What are you referring to as "90 degree air filters" ?

Are you talking about the 3 1/2" to 4" tubing used to route air into the Throttle Body/MAF (many use a cone air filter) ?

If your tight for space, S&P makes a MAF/Filter, check there Catalog.

yep I was talking about that.

I saw the S&P one. $175 plus freight seems a little steep for an air filter setup.

I have seen some people use a 90 degree elbow, then some black PVC to the air filter. They use the MAF in it too.
