Ram Air Box

I have just purchased my ultra z hood from sun coast creations and wanted to know if any of the ram air boxes coming off a 4th generation Trans Am will work with the ultra z hood? I have a 95 Z28.

From what I have seen, the SLP Ultra-Z airbox is the same one they use in the SLP Ram Air HO setups. And my Ram Air HO airbox is identical to the stock LT1 WS6 airbox, except there are no logos, and the rubber gasket is not glued directly to the lid.

And the lid can be opened up nicely too.....

I wanted to get a used one either ebay or anyone here. What about the 98+ Trans am ram air box, think it would work also?

I don't even think the LS1 WS6 airbox is open on the top.

I was thinking you could flip it around, but then you have to find a way to mount it. Its just hard finding a lt1 ram air box without paying $300.

Suncoast makes an airbox for the LS1 that faces upwards.

Dont want to spend $300 on a ram air box when i can get one used for about 50-100 bucks! Just wanting to know if i could use a used OEM ram air box on the ultra z hood. Looks like I can do that, thanks for your input Injuneer.
