It would fit an NA but you would need to address the intake tubes. This is one of the only covers that fits our cars when they are modified with a cold air intake (CAI). Needswings and others make them for our cars. This cover has no intake ports/tubes its merely and engine cover that fits when you install either a dual or single CAI. The stock Crossfire cover will not fit with a CAI without a lot of cutting.

I put one of these on my roadster when I put the CAI on. It was either this cover (which I like very much) or the ugly top of the engine.

Yes, These are made of plastic just like the stock one you took off of yours to add the CAI.
This is exactly what some of the others have been using to replace the stock cover/air box's after adding the CAI.

Thanks for the pic Evan, I would want to use only part of the cover. As it's plastic I could cut it if I figured a way to do that. I bought Paul's valve covers that are painted to match the car so I'd not want to cover them much and there's the manifold cover to deal with I've got the whole winter to mull this over............

Go for a unified yellow under hood approach!
