In need of an airbox

[Guest]

Hey guys, I just bought an '81 GS550L a couple weeks ago and I'm trying to get her running the way she used to. The PO replaced the airbox with some crappy pod filters. From the reading I've done, my only two options are to rejet the carbs with a stage 3 kit or find a used airbox to re-replace the pods. I would prefer to do the latter, and I'm hoping I could get some advice on where to start. I'm new to these bikes and don't really know what I need for the airbox.

Is ebay the best place to find a used one? What kind of fasteners will I need to secure the airbox to the frame? If I find an airbox with boots, should I replace them anyway with new ones? Where can I get the clamps? Is there anything else that I'm forgetting and will need to buy? I know I can find a filter for it, but I'm most concerned about getting the airbox in place properly.

Sorry for being a noob, but I really appreciate any help you guys can provide.

Ebay or the "parts wanted" classifieds here on the site.

Not sure if a 78 box will fit, but I have a spare that's just missing the boots and filter housing.
