depends on what size MAF you have. i might have put the wrong size down, 4 in the TB side and 3.5 is the MAF side. They have these at Siliconintake.com. i will measure a MAF later and post the size. Im pretty sure its 3 or 3.5

Ok that's the same one. I'm gonna get the red colored one because I just recently put a red strut tower brace on. Should look nice.

are these about the same size as a stock/aftermarket elbow? or will the intake need to shift over in order for it to fit?

hopefully that makes sense..

I have a new GM 1LE elbow in stock for $84.99 shipped or I can price you a Trick Flow if you'd like. Just let me know!

Thanks!

From what I had:

Stock - Torn when I got the car

1LE- Good choice, could tear eventually, but nice factory piece.

Vortech - Had that stupid divider in it

Trick Flow- Favorite, polymer so it wont heat soak like metal, but it wont tear like a rubber one will eventually.

The intake should fit perfect with this. Unlike the aftermarket elbows this doe snot need cut to fit a CAI and has a little give so the CAI will fit nicly right by the ABS pump.

Before I did my lid I was running a 1LE. I prefer it over my metal elbow I had on my 94.
