Re: Poly 4bbl hood clearance

[Bill M <y1topbanana73@xxxxxxxxx>]

Ricky,

Exactly what air cleaner is that? And how high is the element? The base looks alot wider where it bellies out than the drop one I have. My current one won't clear my Edelbrock linkage, etc without a spacer between the base and the carb throat.

I'll be using a QuickFuel 750 (Holley) carb by the way.

Before yarding the engine out - double checked hood clearance using clay before and after.  Have the same 1 ¼” clearance in front and more in back and center, since the original 2 bbl air cleaner actually tilts forward.

 

This is with an Edelbrock 1406 and Mr Gasket 4339 air cleaner.  I am sure there are other combo’s that will work, thicker air cleaners with more drop over a manual choke carb etc.
