318 Pie Pan?

[APK]

The engine on my 1972 Dodge Dart is nothing special but just a 318 2-Barrel. But I thought that if I could add a pie pan on the air cleaner just to give a different look. I know a could put a 318 decal, but I like the pie pan method better. I have looked on the web but have not found any with just 318, except with Four Barrel. Does anyone know of a such an item?

Thanks for your response in advance.

I don't know which air cleaner you have but some won't accept a pie tin....the shape is different.

Just to confirm, the 318 Four Barrel pie pan I received today will not fit (too big) my 318 2-Barrel air cleaner...so moving on.

Next Project... Mopar retro battery.

Use the Air Cleaner from a 1970's 360 2-Barrel truck, a pie tin/pan will fit one of those.

As a matter a fact, this air cleaner started life as a Single Snorkel 360 2BBL piece that I modified to a Dual Snorkel (and welded in a 4BBL base opening to fit a TQ) and then added a 340 Pie Tin to it (fits perfectly)

It came from a 1975 Dodge W100 with a 360, I'm not sure, but I believe the car 360's used the same pan and base too. I'd have to go measure my air cleaner, but all "pie pan/tin" air cleaners are 19" in diameter (or maybe it's 21"?) I have one laying in the back of my truck, i'll measure it when it gets light enough out that i can see to root through the stuff in the bed.

Did Mopar make a 360 2bbl dual snorkel air cleaner?

 

[cudamark]

None I've ever seen. Depending on which carb you're using, you might be able to use an earlier dual snorkle from an AFB. They have a smaller diameter air horn and will fit the Holley 360 2bbls and earlier big 2bbl Carters that came on the 383's. I don't know of any that will fit on a Carter BBD though.
