One of the local car mills has a nice 90 for sale but I cant figure out the air cleaner on this one.On the left side of the housing there is a nipple, as seen with the red cap.I didnt know this type of housing was produced in 90 and there is a threaded bung on the right side that one of the sensors that was mounted in the air horn is now mounted in the housing.I recently bought a new air cleaner housing for my car that has this nipple on the left front of the housing.When I asked the parts guy about this I was told this was a later design.http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a136/FLYTYM/-97ef60379572a2dd52dd7ec8e0cb98b73a.jpghttp://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a136/FLYTYM/-a6b0280a1b86f329f0fa8388ef6c1e1cf1.jpg

Air housing for a L98/LT1 car. Fresh air feed for the air injection came of the air cleaner assembly. The ZR-1 had it's own intake snout.
The sensor on the driver side is a relocated IAT sensor.

This cars got 2600 miles,is there a benefit to having this AC housing.Just seems a little odd that such a low mileage car would have a replacement AC housing.

No benefit. Actually a detraction since it is such low miles. The factory housings can crack at the seams which is why people replace them.

is the front bumper still the original? Maybe it got hit.
