Frankly, you will not be able to find or use a large enough air cleaner for a 482 under the hood of a Cobra. You'll lose a very large amount of hp with any of them. So, with that being said, try to find the biggest you can, and find something that you like the looks of too.

The air cleaner is something I tell customers to buy at the last. Sometimes on the dyno a 1" carb spacer will add 10-12 hp, and the customer will have to make the decision on whether or not he has the room for that as well. All car manufacturers will vary a little on room as well.

Turkey pans? Nah.
