What aftermarket intake will work on 70-71 Air Cleaner

Wake up!

The air cleaner he wants to use is a 70-71 factory 4 bbl. unit. It has the typical & current 4bbl neck size. 5-1/4.

@dibbons A shorter filter in that air cleaner doesn’t help anything in his case. Do you know what the 70-71 air cleaner housing looks like? In your case, the Un—silenced air cleaner it can provide clearance but also binders breathing.

@Cuda Al

He said he “Currently has a Holly” 5-1/4 diameter air cleaner size, same as a 70-71 4bbl. OE air cleaner.

Tell me which after market 4bbl. carb has an odd size that will not allow the OE air cleaners useage?

@4spdragtop

You must have an early OE Carter with the smaller neck size or a modern carb with the smaller air cleaner opening for the earlier carbs.

@JoeDragster

I don’t know if this helps but ......

I’m running a Mancini drop base air cleaner base with the MP black wrinkle ribbed lid on the wires ‘67 Cuda. Stock hood. Air filter height I can get if you want to know. (Car is in paint currently. 10 miles away. No problem.)

Summit racing had the filter I needed. It took a few minutes going through the selection process in there left hand side bar. Knowing how much filter height you need to start is a huge help.
