I bought the setup from www.ramairbox.com
It is kind of a one sive fits all kit so depending on your truck you will need to modify it some. I don't know (don't remember) what kind of truck you have but as long as you have a v8 it can be made to fit fairly easily. I had to do some fiberglassing to get it to fit and I know it is the same for the gen III's.
Unfortunatly I don't have any current pics up on the net to link to so I'll email you pics of mine and of a roadrunner with the same setup in a different configuration. Feel free to ask more detailed questions. When I have more time I can take pics of whatever parts of it you want to see.

I'll gie you all the help I can, I love a good challenge. The problom is that the engine in the V6 sits so far back in the bay that the TB is practicly against the firewall. Try measuring from the middle of the TB to the firewall to get a radius then look on www.ramairbox.com to see if they have anything that will fit. You could also try emailing Piere (I think that was his name) and telling him what you have and the demensions you have to work with. He seemed very helpful when I delt with him.
The inlets for mine are in the stock locations. Since my truck shares the body style of the Shelby dakotas I have a knockout for a second snorkel. I have a few ideas for you if you feel up to the task of building but I am sort of pressed for time at the moment. Here is the only link I know of to a Dakota with this ram air...
