well, the 93 doesn't have a MAF, so no...I dont think it will without making an extension tube from where the MAF should be.

Besides, a 96ss would have the ram air "tuba intake" that goes on top of the intake manifold...so im not sure why theyd have a moroso CAI on there...

The 94+ CAIs are shorter due to no MAF on the 93s, so without a coupler it will not fit.

Hey:

A $10.00 3" fenco rubber plumbing connector from home depo or lowes will bridge the gap, when using a shorter 94-97 cai of any type on a 93 . They are way more of them cheaper than 93 type. unless its over priced, more than $50 used ,I would get it, depending on its condition. I 'd be wondering why it was advertise from a 96 SS, as they have ram air not cai. 96 SS =$ price scam, "caveat emptor", buyer beware.

Going to need an extension tube on the 93 to use a 96 Moroso CAI. No biggie.
Go to a semi truck shop or a rubber hose shop and get a piece of rubber tubing to span the gap.

thats what I was reffering to...you could make it work, but it wont work without some modification...

94-97 have MAFs between the intake elbow and the cai...93's dont use a MAF at all so the cai is just longer...
