One barrel
 
I have a "modified" air cleaner on a 230ci. I want to get a different air cleaner for it but I cant find any that fit a one barrel rochester.

Any thought or tips?

Thanks
Greg

Get a bigger carb.

If you go into your auto parts store, if they have a speed section, you should find a plastic adapter that will go from the four barrel to a single barrel. I got mine at Shucks.

Okay, let me clarify. I have seen the adaptors for size. What I am wondering about is, how does the air cleaner attach to a one barrel carb?

Any pics would help too.

It sandwhiches between the bottom of the air cleaner and top of carb.

Got it thanks. How does the air cleaner attach to the carb?

I know it bolts on, but it can't go straight down or it will hit the butterfly.

mine had a metal bracket that was attached to the top of the carb and had a bolt sticking up. I just added a long nut, I think they call them a turn buckle, and added some more rod.
