Default Re: Air Cleaner Base ID help

I wish I knew what it was - it just might be the perfect thing for me to use on my Q-jet with a reproduction '66 L79 nova lid for a "period correct" "faux stock" appearance on my '65 Chevy II.

No, that air cleaner base is much larger in diameter and has a breather tube.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: SuperNovaSS</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Does the edge look smooth or is it rough cut at all? I have had open element &quot;bases&quot; that were actually snorkel type bases that had the outer part cut off. Good head scratcher.

Edge is very smooth. If this was cut out of another air cleaner, someone had some great tools and skill.
