Clean up your crusty iron intake and rejoice knowing you don’t have to cobble or modify one single thing while at the same time outperforming those other aftermarket intakes for anything up to 500 horsepower.

The shaker air cleaner setup is a focal point of the entire engine and car, you’ll know it’s located exactly where it belongs using your iron intake.

Saving 25 pounds or so just isn’t worth it on a 3,800 pound car for the hassle you’ll go through trying to make an aftermarket aluminum intake work.

If you don’t mind the cost a reproduction aluminum HO intake is nice but in most cases those ports are a poor match and might make you wish you stayed with the tried and true iron intake.
