Default Cold air intake on 68?

What cold air intake is the best for my 68 coupe? It has a 351w in it.

unless you have an EFI motor we just yous air filters, unless you want a direct scoop like a grabber or somethin (shaker style you know with a rubber seal from the scoop to the hood to the air filter)

ive seen kits, that consis of a custom biberglass air filter housing and some ducting, they look pretty kool but youd have to relocate your battery cause one of the hoses would have to go there.. but a quick search led me to cold air intakes and hood scoops. and i think it would be callled "ram air" not really cold air

You have to have an EFI motor for a cold air intake like Emperor said above. The cold air intake connects to the throttle body and only an EFI motor has a throttle body, so yourbest bet would be a more free flowing air filter and a scoop.

Either a "ram air" style hood scoop, or the better way to do it is a reverse cowl induction hood, either one will provide cool air to the filter of you seal it off from the engine compartment
