Projects A brake drum as an air cleaner?

I borrowed "Jimmy six's " cake pan idea...
11" stainless cake pan, 9" filter, and a 9" base that I already had. Plenty of room between the filter and pan for airflow. I am sure there will be some negative comments, but I don't care. I like the smooth clean look. And in the event of a sudden downpour, I am "covered"... ha ha I will still need to polish out the "swirl" marks on the bottom.

 

Is that an old Bread Box???
Ha ha!!!

 

I wasn't going to read this thread, glad I did now.

 

Yes it is! When he hit the throttle it opened up! I thought it was cool! And I enjoyed it! But I glad it’s on his car!

I like it

 

Now I know where my fishing bait box went

 

Something going on there, lever hooked to throttle shaft, copper pipe from thermostat..

 

Ron's Bakery and Rat Rod Parts. Different, but it needs to stay with "that group". I am Butch/56sedandelivery.

 

Looks like a lightweight aluminum casting without the cast iron sleeve.... It don't look that bad..... Plus it has all those "windows" milled out..... It kinda looks regal on that hemi....

 

Yum!....

 

Looks great. If don't tell anyone the won't know. To me they have a nostalgic look for low bucks.

 

They did!. Look up 1980 Buick Regal.....
Ya just need to remove the iron liner.... It could be done on a lathe....

 

Heatmaster die cast heater housing... flee market camode cover $3...
the 2 holes were to mount a 289 V badge...
built a two deuce bottom plate but the rochesters caught fire 2 out of 3 first starts... no !
quickly roughed out this base, sloppy center cut was to clear a mock up carb...
never got around to it... gave the near cherry air deflector from the heatmaster to a guy with a big ol poncho coupe...
