Anyone have a pic of a 67-72' 6 cyl air cleaner??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

C/10 King · 03-08-2013, 05:49 PM

Hey guys, my 72' 250 motor 6 cyl truck is getting a make over with a power brake booster being added, and of course I have to change my existing air cleaner because it will no longer fit with the large booster being in the way, does anyone have a photo of what air cleaner I need to look for? I know earlier models had oil baths that mounted over the valve cover, a photo of a Stock air cleaner (preferably) that would accommodate the booster is what I'm asking for, but an attractive after market one would be okay too, and photos of mounting/support brackets would be a big help. Thanks in advance!

Here is a picture of an off-set air cleaner I saved from some one else's previous post.

This should help a lot. It is for the 71-72 G vans. In 72 the G-10 250 I-6 used the same P/N air cleaner (#1) as the 72 K10 250 I-6. So being as the 71-72 K10 had power brakes standard this illustration should be very close overall. Here are all the group numbers if you want to do a line item search for part numbers.

Thanks Guys!!! I swear this forum is the best!

Now, to go find one.

The offsets are pretty rare.I've seen only a couple.There just weren't many 6 cyl trucks equiped with PB.

**leddzepp** · 03-08-2013, 11:31 PM

Here is one on a 68. No snorkel, and strangely enough, no power booster.

TOTALLY off topic, and I apologize for hijacking but leddzepp, your new avatar is freaking me out man!

I was going to say something when I first saw it. I recognize him from the banner ad about searching criminal records. You get those,too? I bet you haven't been searching either and wonder why you get them,like I do. From searches my eye! sheesh

About those air cleaners....ummm,I forget. I dunno man. I can't seem to think clear with that guy up there ^^^

C/10 King · 03-09-2013, 01:13 PM

Actually, I pieced one together yesterday, with the exception of the support rod, so I'm off to the local ("pick a parts") junk yards.

ORIGINAL engine from a '59 maybe.

RichardJ · 03-09-2013, 01:35 PM

I used a booster from a '80s Chevy van. It doesn't have that bracket and bellcrank on the back. With a small spacer it bolts flush up against the firewall. I do not like the look of the MC hanging out over the middle of the engine compartment.

**leddzepp** · 03-09-2013, 01:41 PM

My truck is about to make parol, so I figure this is a fitting avatar. That, and it looks like my neighbor, lol

I have 2 different types. Well, 2 and a half, actually.

This is not a very good picture of this kind, but it's different than what's been shown:

But if you use one of these smaller boosters, a regular one fits:

I can't find the pictures just now, but I have a type like has been shown, but is an oil-bath, and then the top half of another one.

Here's a little better picture of that first one.

That engine looks like a 216 or early 235,judging by the valve cover and intake.
Pretty sure they quit making those early 50's..

midniteblues · 03-10-2013, 12:02 PM

here a pic of one i sold a while back on the board this one came from a 69-72 292 ps pb truck

one of the differances i noticed is this one didnt have the air diverter valve in the snorkel

oldno7 · 03-10-2013, 07:47 PM

(not intrested in buying or selling) but do these air cleaners go for good money, are they just hard to find, are they just something diff from everything else. I will say there pretty cool. I was just wondering

My 67 was the same way. Offset oil bath air cleaner and no brake booster.
