Is there any way that i can customize default sharepoint Search box to get results only of specific content type.

<SharePoint:DelegateControl runat="server" ControlId="SmallSearchInputBox" />

Some property in above tag where i can key in my "content type" to limit search only from this content type.

Thanks in advance

You might have an easier time configuring the Query on the Search Results Webpart as described on this article:

The Search Results Webpart has the Query Builder, where you would input something like:

{searchTerms} ContentType=yourcontenttype
