I have a Fernco on mine.
Fits much better than the SLP bellow did even with the stock TB. Just trim the Fernco down to what you need.
SLP lid, 90mm TB on there now.

I've got an 85mm lid, a Z06 85mm maf, and a fast 90/90 so I need a way to hook it up. It seems like the 45 degree elbows would work perfectly if they didn't cost $50

I wouldn't take the smooth bellows if it were free. Why would I purposefully put on a part that yields no horsepower gain and cracks lids and causes airbox sealing issues? The smooth bellows is the biggest scam since the turbonator.
The Smooth Bellows is an appearance mod AT BEST.

I'd pay real money to be able to say I have dual turbonators.
Hell I'd have a custom plate made.

i picked up a k&n intake kit real cheap and i have been using the bellows it came with, with my lid, it fits and flexes much better than the fernco, which i have tried as well. buti would not spend 40 bucks for a bellows either

Thank you for your help.

Isnt this any proof that the smooth bellows/frenco flow better?

Patrick G turned me on to these, not sure which one you need. I need to know the length too as as I want to go full SD and get rid of the MAF. So a good 6-7" between the lid and TB, 4" both ends if I go with an 85mm lid from Fast Toys.net and the 90/90 I have on order.
