Now where did I put that air cleaner??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

What started off as an early morning run to get a ton of hay in the farm truck turned into a fuel pump replacement in a field. Problem is I couldn't remember where I put the air cleaner. Needless to say the right front fender raised up slightly when I found it. I knew I went over something......just didn't know what. As long as it wasn't my son, I really wasn't too worried.

This was what I found. Air filter was shot but the cleaner itself wasn't too bad but now......

Funny thing is that was a 4" element!!

Damn that sucks. haha. Now you've got something to hang up on the wall!

Good thing is that I have about 3 other ones with elements so I'm already back up and running. just thought it looked funny.

ZombieWeinerDog · 07-10-2011, 01:05 AM

FRENCHBLUE72 · 07-10-2011, 09:35 AM

Looks very low profile to me..

prostreetC-10 · 07-10-2011, 10:33 AM

I've been trying to sell it on the Team Camaro website for those guys with the tall intake and the cowl hood clearance problems. NO go so far!

It's got patina now...worth twice as much

prostreetC-10 · 07-10-2011, 11:37 AM

That's not patina.....that's powdered horse sheet. The wind blows it everywhere. lol

my air-intake setup. an edelbrock performer with Q-jet and topped off with an old GM dual snorkel base from a camaro (or whatever) and the top half from my dad's 84 burb c10 350 w/ tow package. takes a huge 14x5 inch filter! still needs some minor metal work and a coat of paint. thank gawd i always remember to put it back on or it would need more than paint!
