I love my new ugly *** air cleaner !

Well I've been running and Edelbrock open element air cleaner for some time. But as I get older I find that prefer quiet comfortable cars over loud, noisy cars.

With the open element air cleaner, I was constantly annoyed by the loud sucking sound of all that air entering the carb, even under light acceleration, and at wide open throttle you get the WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH sound too.

Today I bought an ugly beat up dual snorkel air cleaner. I know, they never put dual snorkel air cleaners on A-bodies, and probably never on smallblocks.

But the car is so nice and quiet now ! I love it, almost no intake noise at all.

I'll clean it up, sand it down, and give it a new coat of black wrinkle finish paint over the weekend, so it looks decent.
Probably keep the Edelbrock on to put on it when at car shows, but for driving, the dual snorkel will be on it from now on.
