DOES ANYONE HAVE A PICTURE OF THE AIR FILTER SO I CAN SEND HIM TO CONFIRM!!!
Shocks


I found it!! I don’t have digital camera, but if you still want it, I measured it. Fits carb approx 2 3/8 diam, neck, the cleaner is 4 ¾ diam, 4 in high, rises about 1 in above the air horn clamp to the base of the body itself, there is a coarse wire mesh inside it, a space about ¾ where there are six openings in the upper body around the outside, a hair felt cap in the top of the lid, and a wing nut holding the upper body onto the lower. The lower wire mesh is covered with a spoke radiating stamped grill thing that holds the mesh in. I guess since you have an updraft carb, reverse all the top/bottom words in the above description. It looks just like the photos I see of the updraft cleaner/flame arrestors. There is only one mark on it, a 14 stamped into the steel clamping band. It is in good condition, one small sent in the lid and rust pits on the lid. Let me know if that is it. Tom.

That air cleaner sounds like a 1932-36 truck. I have not measured mine to make sure.


How Sweet the roar of a Chevy four!
