Air cleaner base ID
Does anybody know what this open element air cleaner base is originally for?

Re: Air cleaner base ID
By the shape of that vent elbow at 90 degrees, I'd think it fit something with a flat intake manifold like used on 70 and later engines. I have also noticed the 90 degree elbows on 69 SS350 cowl induction cars whereas the 396 and 427 performance engines had an elbow that pointed more down.

Re: Air cleaner base ID
The ID cutout looks like it's for a Quadrajet.

Re: Air cleaner base ID
Kurt,
I guess that rules out mine from being a `69 after seeing yours pictured.

Your picture looks pretty much the same from the top. Do you have a pic of the tube on the bottom?
