    The longer you think about a Twin H air cleaner sticker on a flaphead, the less sense it makes ...

  5. Come to think about it, any air cleaner sticker would look funny on this. ;)

    Thanks boys that was fun,
    Dave got a kick out of the responses...
    That is a 1947 Ford cabover air cleaner flipped 180* with the oilbath removed, a 4" cheapie base screwed in to align the rear carb...
    An 8" filter and a rare aftermarket "deluxe in red script" hubcap ...
    stickers because he was just having fun making the darn thing !
    ...
    any other just for fun creations out there...?

    The "H" stands for heuvos.
     
  13. I bought this whippy little MoPar air cleaner at a swap meet about 10 years ago. The plan was to find another one just like it and run them on my Pontiac dual quad intake with a couple AFBs. The tape measure said they'd both fit without contacting 49plyaircleaner.jpg 370ready.JPG each other. I've never seen another one like it in 10 years searching. In a massive purge during moving to a new house/garage I included it in a scrap drive.

    Now these guys have me afraid that they are going to get their undies in a wad when I take the oval finned cast aluminum 4 barrel air cleaner I have and modify the base to use with a pair of 2 barrels on my flathead.

    Actually I think that aircleaner setup is cool as all get out and 75 % of guys who look at it at events won't know the difference anyhow.

    IMG_20190530_181148.jpg I thought for fun I would make an adapter to use this air filter on my dual quad intake on my Buick 322. PXL_20201208_182721415.jpg

    That's what I did with a 250 Chevy with duel Holly Webbers in my 36 Chevy. I thought it looked good.
