Ram Air Kit for 1967-1968
Q: Ram Air Kit for 1967-1968
Where can I found a Ram Air kit to put in my 1968 Firebird 400.
A: There is no kit that I’m aware of for the 1967-1968 Firebird Ram Air System. A kit would consist of the Upper Hood Baffle, Lower Carb Shroud, Hood Seal, Shroud Seal, Air Cleaner Lid and open scoops.
A few years ago, Barry Martin (Sonic Motors) had the Hood Baffle reproduced. He only had around 5075 pieces stamped out (kirksite die) and vendors were selling these for $350-$425 ea. Not sure if any are still out there. The Carb Shroud is the same as 1968 GTO. Used ones go for $500 or so. I understand that someone has or is doing a Carb shroud. Figure this to be in the area of $300 or more. The foam seals are available thru most repro companies. The Carb lid is also available repro. Scoops would have to be cut out; repro’s are available. If you bought all the pieces used or repro, figure around $1500 for such a ‘kit’.

I purchased a complete ram air kit in 2012 at Performance Years. I paid around $450 for the kit.
It was all metal also, not fiberglass. Works great!
