Re: 1966 Oil Bath Air Cleaner

The oil bath air cleaners all have the same design 63-66. The thing that differs is the base part.The photos shown are correct, but you need one off a 1 barrel carb.Just curious, did your build sheet list the oil bath option?

Re: 1966 Oil Bath Air Cleaner

it looks like the photos different in design-the one on the CJ5 looks fatter and shorter, but the other 2 look identical...my assumption is that the 1st picture and the 3rd picture are the correct ones to get...

Yes, pictures 1 and 3. This is option K48, 2 pint oil bath air cleaner for the 10-30 series. It was standard equipment on larger c 50 and c 60 series. The 292 shown in photo, is from GMC literature, GMC painted their engines red.

Re: 1966 Oil Bath Air Cleaner

If you like your engine you probably should get a newer style that uses a paper or maybe K&N filter. The oil bath filters just keep the gravel out.
