try Mr Gasket, They have the small aircleaners.
 
Im kinda lookin for an original mabe someone has one who installed a biger carburetor and had to get a larger base. My afb has 4 7/32 inch top.
 
I think those came from the factory with a 1/2 in thick spacer. There was one on e-bay a while back. Could be wrong but mine did not fit either.

If your adapter makes the hood clearance to high, you might try using a shorter air filter. Don't go to short though or you will have cleance issues with the lid on the manifold end. As dart4forte suggested, the Mr. Gasket base works good. I use the same setup on my car and it is a good alternative until you can find the very rare and pricey original. Good luck with your project.

I've got an original base that I can't use because of my newer carb, $15.00 plus shipping and its yours.

PM me if you're interested.
