Does anybody make a dropped base to install a stock aircleaner top on a stock lid on
a 360 with an Edelbrock Performer manifold and a 1405 carb? I want to keep the
the original lid and be able to close my hood. Thanks for all replies and this great forum.
 
Not that I am aware of. A dropped base only comes in aftermarket air cleaners. I run a 2" drop and a filter top on my Holley.

You may have to modify your air cleaner.

I did one for my wife's conversion from 1bbl to 4bbl on her slant six.

Mancini sells a drop base for the 13" Mopar performance air cleaner, not sure if that will work for your application. They have a 13" diameter. All the other drop bases are 14". Looks like Mancini is currently out of stock though

Again, not sure if any of this will help but here's another thread on running drop bases with the MP cast covers. Hood clearance & MP air filter element ?'s
I think I found what I need at Mancini, thanks everybody.
 
Thanks for your replies. I think Mancini has what I need. It says fits
Edelbrock carbs. Will let you know when it gets here.
