I need a 2.5-3.0 inch cobra head intake for a personal project.. where are you guys finding them?

 

here is where i got mine. My size wasn't listed but a phone call to them got me one.

I saw those but to me they looked a little goofy.. Do you have a top pic of yours? what is it made out of?

 

I'll take some pics tomorrow.

 

I got a nitrile rubber one from innovative, or one of the big turbo shops, that I was planning on using for the intake of my procharger. Looked just like the ones listed above. The damn thing was so flimsy, I was sure it would collapse under suction, restricting air flow, so I sent that POS back. I'd consider one made out of a hard plastic, powerdyne has one with their LT1 kits. Best bet would be to fab something up like this for a tight bend: http://para.noid.org/~lj/1000hp/images/inlet3.jpg

 

mine is made of a really hard rubber. they do not collapse. We use them on our Syclones and Typhoons without any issues.

 

I run the 3" ones from the above link on my turbo inlets. They are quite rigid, pretty thick rubber.

 

By goofy i meant its ok if its the only thing you have.. but I'm needing this for my jeep.. I need about a 120 degree bend with about a 4 inch radius

 

here is a link to the pictures of my 4" one:

Hey thanks!

 

I had a rubber 4" cobra head elbow and it collapsed on my, the car would pull like a ***** till about 5500 and then fall flat on it's face. Took me a bit to chase that one down but didn't take me long to throw that cobra head elbow in the trash. Should have known I didn't want anything that had the word "Cobra" in my Z/28

Good luck and GO PATS !!!!
