The big thing that says 'chevy' is the lid as we call it. I think it's the same thing as your CAI that you call it.

These Lids really do the job! Awesome induction noise aswell!

Is the same piece offered for the Middle Eastern Lumina SSes? Is that why it's imprinted with the Chevy logo??

I've seen these before... That lid is very badass. Same platform as the GTO, correct?

As far as not having the El Camino here... Thank god.. it wasn't very popular back in the day, and that is the reason they killed in in the 80's... sales dwindled.
