It cost a fortune but is extremely well made and painted. That probably doesn't answer your question though '71 GTX N96 auto 3:55 '74 Challenger 440+6 4spd 4:10 '71 Duster 340 auto 4:10

Yes, they have the bridge but it's different from the oval top air cleaners. I haven't found a picture of the reproduction with the lid off for comparison.
