I have a 1964 slant 6 225 1 barrel carb. The air filter housing that came with the engine is of course round in shape with an outlet for the breather cap. However the bottom piece that holds the filter is tight to the carb. When I put the top on and tighten the wing-nut as far down as I can the assembly is loose. Does the height of the air filter against the top part of the housing make the whole assembly tight? I'm thinking I have the incorrect air filter? And in 1964 / 65 does the air filter housing have a outlet for the breather cap. I've seen it both ways ?
