who knows how a motion style air cleaner afixes to a carb?

MAKO IS EXACTLY RIGHT ON HOW IT IS INSTALLED. I HAVE BID SEVERAL TIMES ON E-BAY ON THESE CLEANERS BUT WHEN THE BID GOT TO OVER $150, I BAILED OUT; THE LAST TIME I JUST GOT LUCKY. I HAVE NEVER SEEN ONE SELL FOR LESS THAN $150.00, IF THAT. THEY ARE MADE BY MR GASKET AND CAL CUSTOM. GOOD LUCK!

I've bought 2 on Ebay for under $75 in the last 6 months in great condition. Sorry they're not for sale.

Ironclad made the ebay deal of the year when he got his NOS Mr Gasket one for $12.99 recently. I bought one at a Canton Ohio swap meet last year that is in near NOS condition and complete for $4.00. They are actually fairly common at the small swap meets-Mr Gasket probably made 2-3 million of them over the years. They are usually in incomplete condition but you can usually find the missing pieces you need.
Best swap meets to buy old speed parts are the 15-30 vendor types that are a sidebar to a small local car show. Not professional dealers at these shows but guys just cleaning out their garage and needing a few extra bucks. All the big swap meets like Carlisle are picked clean and prices very high.

I hear what you are saying about Carlisle being picked clean. I was there last weekend. I think most of the good stuff is going right to online auctions. Seems like I see the same stuff at Carlisle time after time. I can pretty much tell you what's on each table.

I did score a Fly eye air cleaner online for $22.50. Thank you all for the help.

I have a few of the old wood Grant Steering wheels that Motion used. The wheel is still listed in Grant's catolog but I don't know if the new one looks the same as an old one.

Joe C, do you want to part with one?

Email me I'll send you a picture. It is used not show condition.
