Well, while my car has been down with a blown radiator. I started working on my new air cleaner.
After measuring & cutting... more measuring & more cutting, lots of swearing & blood, this is what was created.
Now it is not finished, still needs polishing, engraving, painting & smoothing of the edges, but you get the point.
Some of it's points, it is 24 inches long, 11 3/4 inches at it's widest & weighs a whopping 9 pounds. It is 95 percent aluminum with metal hardware & the filter element itself. It is heavy, but not all the weight is on the carb, there is a stud on the front attached to the block to support it's length & weight.
Sorry about the fuzzy pictures, I'll get better ones in the daylight.
