Just a Photo of a hat i made for my weber to suit standard sierra air box but car with 2" body lift.

Inside it has a vein that guids the air to both throats. It works a treat

After a few emails I got an answer from recarb, thought this night be of use for some:
Yes, we sell two hats for the Sierra:
1) Factory modified hat, we machine the original and weld a Weber plate to
them. Cost = $89 + $8 post. We will need you to send us your hat to do this.
2) Fully made steel hat. Cost = $149 + $8 post. See attached pics of both.

Contact: sales@recarb.com.au

This worked well for me. Propper weber hat connected to stock airbox with the flexi intake from some falcon at the wreckers.

you'll also find that they'll perform/behave better if getting top fed like B4T's set up.
