Post subject:  air cleaner replacement questions
hi guys, well most of you know i had a tiny 4" or 5" air cleaner on my carb. i got my hands on a stock one and cleaned it up and moded it a bit.
anyways take a look @ the images and tell me if i have done somthing wrong.

but i have noticed some differences:

1: the car is quieter, no so much vroom then flooring it from a stop.... i kinda miss that it sounded awesome but that prolly was not good for the engine.

2: seems like it runs better
3: the car does not diesel when i shut it off during high revs

will this improve gas milage or proformance?

anyways here are some pictures:

Half of your air cleaner (the snorkel that's supposed to be attached to that rectangular hole) is missing. If you install one that has the snorkel, and hook it up properly, your driveability and economy will both improve.

i removed the snorkel and grinded off what was left of it. it was kinda smashed. then took a wire wheel and polished it up

If you need a stock 1 barrel pietin, on your way to, or back from Ceej's place you can pick one up at my place I have 4 of them and at least 3 of them work now... (1 is even a nice 1973 version)

well thanks for the offer DusterIdiot! but i'm going to figure out somthing.
and since i will probably replace the 1bbl and go with a 2 or 4bbl. the 2 air cleaners i have will do fine. but i woudl like to get together with all u guys from oregon sometime. we will see how this trip goes, i'll have my uber sweet laptop with me but i dont think there is many wifi hotspots in halsey or.

cheers!
