DUDE..... If you have it in your possession right now, how much for the raw-finish set-up?
I've seen the individual air cleaners on e-Bay, but it just grinds my balls to shuck out $175 for them.... I can remember when you could buy those for your Pinto "back in the day...." for $8 apiece.
If I can't "acquire" the aforementioned lid, I'll probably go with the stocker. Unless I get the crazy idea of making my.... hey, I wonder?
I don't have any of the aluminum ones. I saw 3 of them last year in Ohio at the swap meet in Columbus. I see them occasionally, and the next 340 6-pack I run, that's what it'll have. I used to have a 6-pack that I put a hidden Nitrous setup under the intake, but never got to see how it really run. Picture is of One I found on the net that I believe to be the same one I plumbed! Had the setup on my Duster without the NOS. Ran great!
I'm collecting parts right now. Trying to "acquire" my old 73 340, 4-speed Duster that's sitting (for 5 years) that's still in Missouri. Old story applies here, "son is going to restore it for 1st car..." Hopefully the gentleman that owns it will realize how much it will take to put back on the road and sell it to me reasonably. Hoping to have it again after 24 years apart. I brought it from Lompoc California to Missouri in 1983.
If your interested in that setup, I'm sure I'll find a few more over the course of the summer. If your really interested, I could contact you when I find them. Let me know of a contact number I can reach you @ when I'm out scrounging parts. Last one I saw was the bare Aluminum setup without the filter element, It went for $110, I think. Let me know if your serious about getting one. JOE
