Do they make cold air intakes for 3rd gens?

Do they make cold air intakes for 3rd gens? I have been looking all over and cannot seem to find them. I want to get rid of this stock POS.

nope.

if u have the intake style that comes from the throttle body,breaks off into a Y shape and picks up air from in front of the rad. like the TPI cars,than u can gut the airboxes and put in a "ram air" kit,but thats about it.

SLP make cold air kits for third gens. 1 is a single intake and the other is a dual intake, but you have to relocate the battery to the trunk. my friend has the dual setup in his '88 IROC

I do not have the intake that breaks into a Y shape. Will that type of intake work on a v6? If so, can you show me a picture of all the pieces I'd need to buy?

my buddy has an 87 Camaro w/ a 2.8 V6 in it and it has that intake the same as my TPI used to have,thats why i asked. i just gutted his airboxes a couple weeks ago,takes less than half hour from dis-assembly to re-assembly.

i actually have the y-shaped "snorkle" off a 86 IROC parts car i had that id be happy to sell u,i would love to get it outta my garage and i dont really want to throw it away. you will need the plastic piece that holds the filters from a TPI car,or another V6 car that had this intake design on it (this is the piece u actually "gut").

for a picture,the easiest way is just go to www.ebaymotors.com and look in Camaro's and find an IROC on there w/ tuned port injection and look at an under hood picture. ull see the y-shaped snorkel,but u wont be able to see what the piece u need underneath it looks like.

if anyone's interested in the snorkel,send me a PM and ill shoot you back a price and such. it does have 2 summit racing stickers,and 1 other sticker (forgot what it is) on it,i wont charge extra for them ( ) and they could be peeled off pretty easily im sure.

Alright, I think I know what you're talking about. I'd kinda like to try and this the entire assembly from the same person so I can get it all at once.

www.ramairbox.com they make some sweet *** raim air dual snorkel intakes... think those are all for carb/TBI cars... I plan on getting one, if you send them your engine specs, they'll email you the kit # and price for all the needed parts, pretty expensive, but they get good reviews

We did back to back runs of the single inlet SLP Cold Air Induction package. 20 HP difference between with and just sucking unfiltered air. Advantage, no CAI.

Will that work on a 3rd gen? I looked that package up and it says 98-02.

Sure it will.

go to www.slponline.com and click on 82-92 F-body then click on induction. Better than the stock box but still too restrictive for my needs when I am running a 383 with a large cam.

Is this what you're talking about? It says that only fits TPI engines.
