Stock air cleaner that would fit Holley carb
I have been looking for an air cleaner
to fit a holly 4-barrel carburetor. Is there anyone that knows if there are cars or trucks from any era that would fit? The one I found was probably for a Rochester Quadrajet it doesn’t clear the back bowl I really liked the chrome air cleaner that came on my truck but isn’t practical for the lack of attention I give it lol Thanks for any help in cross referencing any known part that fits. I’m not using this to find one I need help on what application had the larger opening for a 4 barrel that didn’t use a q-jet |

Raise the air cleaner base using a spacer.
Like these. https://www.amazon.ca/Spectre-Perfor...70178009&psc=1 |

Yep--spacer, I used a later model (factory steel one about 1'' thick) with TBI that has the hose fitting on it for the PCV vent

Re: Stock air cleaner that would fit Holley carb
You just need a spacer. Why not run an open element if you like those? Some of those end up needing a spacer, too. I run a Moroso open element on top of the factory spacer, so still use the factory crankcase breather. This is with a QuadraJet. I think the base didn't fit the carb. I also like the venturi affect of the taller spacer

Re: Stock air cleaner that would fit Holley carb
I bought a 70 Z/28 air cleaner to run on my L36 427 for my short step. It is a dual snorkel that uses a 14x3 hi-perf air filter the same as the OEM open element air filters. $190 or so on Rock Auto.
67-69 Z/28 air cleaner is the best drop base open element Holley air filter. Provide max hood clearance or let you run max air filter size. Around $80. Both are designed for factory dual inlet holley carb applications.

67-69 Z/28's and L78 Camaros had square bore holleys, but they used open element air filters as I said above. The 70-72 Z/28 and I THINK the 402 in same years had the dual snorkel.

Re: Stock air cleaner that would fit Holley carb
I use a open with 2" spacer on my 64 SS Impala. I have a 4 barrel Edelbrock Carburetor on it. Works great.
