What does a stock 72 sbc air cleaner assy. look like?
Can someone post a pic of a stock air cleaner assembly for a 72 Chevy or GMC truck? I think I have one and would like to get rid of it.

Re: What does a stock 72 sbc air cleaner assy. look like?
There are at least two designs. I bought an air filter element at the local auto parts store the other day and found there were at least two different elements available. '72 K5 Blazer element is a little taller than a '71 2wd 3/4 ton. I found out because the air cleaner tub I have came off a '71 3/4 ton 2wd truck (GMC I think). When replaced, I usually get an element that is taller than stock to hold the lid off the base and allow a little more air in. The one I picked happend to be correct for my K5 but held the lid too high - wouldn't fit under the firewall overhang. We double checked part numbers and sure enough, the one that fit was for a '71 3/4 ton. I guess the base or tub is deeper on a K5 and shallower on a 3/4 ton truck?

The truck originally came with a 350 and a Qjet carb, and is a 72 GMC 2wd long bed.
72 4x4- the pics you have posted looks just like the one that I have. Are there any GM part #'s on the assembly that I could look for to determine exactly what it is for? I will probably be listing it on ebay soon. Thanks!!
