Default LS1 Smooth bellow on LT1 Ram Air?
Does anyone know if this will fit either A) around the throttle body to the MAF, or B) from the MAF to the ram air box? I'm trying to find a more permanent solution to my plumbing fitting that connects my MAF to the throttle body.

It should, but the angle might be funky. I put my two elbows side by side and they were a close match. It depends on how long your front coupler is (air box to MAF).

You would still need an elbow from the MAF to make the bend to the TB?

Might work on MAF to CAI?

Why not just buy some nice couplers.

I've got Ram Air, so no elbow. I've been trying to find some nice flexible rubber couplers, but I can't.

go to ebay and look for silicone couplers. You can get any size shape and color.

I had the same problem and I bought the original one used in LT1 corvette. Fits perfectly between TB and MAF.

Are these used more for looks or performance?
