Anemic 351-C 2V

[mjlan]

While this is a big block using a different base, the idea would be the same, lower the outside portion of the base where the seal is down around the carb:

I like that.....now to find a big block boat with air cleaner same dia as the 71-73 Ram air.....maybe off to local u-pull-its see what is out there while the weather has warmed nicely plus no bugs, bees, wasp, rats etc... to contend with in mid January.

So what is the dia of the 351-CJ air cleaner is it the same as the 429?


refering to a 351-CJ ram-air air cleaner. Same as stock 2V air cleaner diameter or bigger....same ford big block 429?


OK I see the base is offset from the upper seal area. Looks like I might as well use the stock 351-C air cleaner and chop-cut-rebuild into ram air style. All I need then is the top diameter, seal and come up with the offset distance.

Just pokin' around a bit an wondering whatever happened with your project.

I still haven't even gotten my Ram Air air cleaner painted and installed yet, nor have I installed the Edelbrock E-Street fuel injection system or A/C idler bracket (hopefully, that'll all come together around the end of September when my buddy Dave visits from Phoenix - just so we can have something cool to do and wrench on).

The engine's running like a champ, though.  I take it out for a spin now and then - hit a car show once in a while, Cars & Coffee, things like that.  I think things would be a lot more fun with 3.50:1 rear gears, but even with 3.00s, it's not too bad.  The engine feels plenty healthy and stays cool enough even when I run it out a bit when it's hot outside (as-in: 100+ temps outside in the shade).

Just checkin' in!
