340 air cleaner (Fiberglass?)

[Princess Valiant]

So a guy I buy a lot of parts from has an air cleaner that looks exactly like a 70/1 340 air cleaner but its not metal, I think it's Fiberglass....

I'm guessing it's not factory but if it is Fiberglass, is it fuel resistant? Can Fiberglass withstand the heat of the engine?

It looks the part but I think someone is messing with me.

Anyone heard of such a thing?

Yes, yes, and yes
they make repop 6 pack aircleaner bases too that are fiberglass

There's a guy on here looking for one in the Wanted section.

Yes they did make fiberglass 70/71 repops. Yes they did make six pack repops. Yes some of them look good. Yes they will catch on fire and melt.

@HemiSSDart Did you red light or did I break out?

 

[HemiSSDart]

red lit...

 

[RustyRatRod]

Yeah not a thing wrong with fiberglass. It can take high temperatures.

I am still looking for a fiberglass one if anyone has one. I welcome any opportunity to take weight off the nose of the car!

So this is an old thread, I had a few ask if I'd sell the fiberglass air cleaner, however I gave it away a few weeks after starting this thread because I didn't think it would be a high demand item.
