Another 'what am I' post.

Good evening sportsfans. I picked up some parts today, and this was one of them. I was told that it's the top to a 273-4 air cleaner.
I couldn't find a tape measure
Does it have any value?

Slant six one barrel air cleaner is what it looks like. Top is the same as 273, but 273s were all chromed. Some big block B/C-bodies used the same air cleaner as the 273 four barrel, but in black.

Or is that just the top? If so, then it is slant or big block B/C-body

It's just the top.

Nick's Garage - Air Cleaner Identification

1962-66 361, 383 and 413 4-Barrel. Need confirmation that this was used on 1962 cars with hi-performance engines.

Same air cleaner as '65-7 273 4-barrel except it is painted black. The cover appears to be the same as some slant six engines. Cars with cleaner air package (CAP) had nipple to connect to breather cap.

Thanks to all of you. I'm hoping that I'll find the base when I pick up the rest of it next week.
