Title: Drop Base
Post by: Sixt8Chrgr on December 01, 2010, 05:11:39 PM
I have a 68 with a 440. I am running an Eddy Performer RPM intake, 750 Holley, no spacer and want to run the stock style unsilenced breather. Can someone tell me the correct drop base to buy and where to buy it? I would like to keep the hood insulation off the breather top.

Thanks,

Lawrence

Ford Racing 13" chrome aircleaner

part # M-9600-A302

Find them cheaper on ebay at times used

Be forewarned that using this base really restricts the airflow to the carb especially if the 750 you are running still has a choke horn.  When I was using this setup I was running a Dominator style main body that had no choke horn to get better airflow to the carb

All I want is a base and run the original breather.

base isnt sold separately AFAIK....this is the only 13" diameter one Im aware of (which is the size of the original unsilenced air cleaner base)
