Air Cleaner Dress Up
Anyone know of a place where one can get a chrome, factory-style air cleaner hat? My stock one got smooshed, and I'd like to replace it with something a little more blingy.
Also, anyone know of anyplace a fella could get a "GMC" air cleaner nut? Similar to the "bowtie" style nuts, but with the "GMC" logo instead. Not "GM", but "GMC" specifically. |

Re: Air Cleaner Dress Up
The deep ones? I see the flatter style, but not the hat for a 4" filter.
...unless I'm retarded, which is probably the case. |

Re: Air Cleaner Dress Up
Nobody knows of a "GMC" a/c nut?
Guess I have to settle for a "GM" unit. |

Re: Air Cleaner Dress Up
One last bump, then I'll let it die.
Anyone know where I can get a chrome "tall" air cleaner lid? I see the "shallow" ones, but not the "tall" versions. Like this... |

Re: Air Cleaner Dress Up
There is a shop in Austin that can chrome one. Minimum charge was $75 last time I checked. So, chrome a few things!!

Re: Air Cleaner Dress Up
*shrug*
The one off my '77 454 was tall like that. So was the one on the '91 Suburban parts rig w/ a 454. Come to think of it, the one on my Old Man's '86 454 is the same way. My '88 Suburban w/a 350 is the "short" style. Maybe it's a big block thing. Rock Auto lists filter heights for an '84 305 from 3.5" and 5.5". Who knows. |

Re: Air Cleaner Dress Up
I've never seen one aynwhere and a quick search comes up with the shallow standard lid. Looks like the only options are to chrome it or powdercoat it if you want color.

Re: Air Cleaner Dress Up
