    Cold air intake

    Hi, I am looking for a cold air intake for my 4 barrel sbb in late 70's auto. Need one that gets air from in front of the radiator or behind headlight. Maybe someone knows of a chevy setup that would work. Would like to use K&N filter.
    Regards, Diver

    Diver,
    I don't think I've ever seen any actual "cold air intake" kit designed for a sbb. Have you looked into the 1970-1972 Skylark GS? It's hood has 2 actual RAM air scoops on top of the hood itself that could lead to a functional intake. You would require the intake box for this and I've never seen them on the sbb, only on the big block 400+ engines. What you want may require a few mods; especially for the cold air behind the headlight or radiator. I run with a 14X4 K&N air filter with an Xtreme air lid and stock hood and I've had good results. But for you, a ram air hood is probably more of what you should look for unless you want something custom fabricated; like an actual intake tube. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful but good luck!
