Is today your lucky day. I was about to put one on ebay. I got you covered. The one i have angles the oil filter toward the rear, its not the one that points the filter straight down. Is that ok.

Heres a picture. It fits the Offy tunnel ram. Its powdercoated blue but you can have it redone to match your boat.

Bummer, I've only got a single-carb setup. Thanks anyway, and by the way, that setup you've got looks sweet. What are you replacing the scoop with?

Hey Taylorman, why did you take off the dual carb setup?? I have a single set up now on my 455 olds but I came across a sweet dual set up for cheap. What are the advantages or disadvantages of both? Thanks. Mike

I actually gained power with the single setup. Picked up 100 rpms. The Offy tunnel ram is really a piece of junk. It mostly a bling bling thing. I love my setup now. Victor intake and a Demon 850.

New setup looks cleaner too. Is that scoop a Dooley as well? They're right down the street from where I work, thinking about purchasing one instead of just having that little air cleaner perched up there.
