Default Re: 1970 L78 Nova 5 blade fan sold on e-bay WOW!!

I had heard that the dual snorkel was installed late in the production year of 1970 for noise/emission regulations.. I don't know what that had to do with anything though. I do know of later production 70 cars that still had the open element air cleaner..

Chevy using up their inventory of the dual snorkel air cleaners makes sense.. I think sometimes we forget that Chevy/GM was thinking $$$$ back then and really didn't care what car got what on the production lines. They just wanted to use up inventories of their stuff...
