9" chrome air cleaner top ?

[oldmodlover]

Did any motors come with a 9" chrome air cleaner top like the one on right side of picture ?
Or is it an aftermarket piece ?

The chrome one a factory 273 4bbl HP engine, that’s all they ever came on, 1965-1967 Dodge Dart “Charger 273” and Plymouth “Commando 273” A-body cars. They made 2 versions, one like pictured above, and one with a breather tube for the CAP (California clean air package) version...supposed to have a tin decal on the top also.

Thank you.
Found that top (with base) at local flea market for $ 5.
It will work for my application.

That’s a steal! If it cleans up nice it should be worth $100 or more...I scored one with the carb base plate one time for $15 at a swap meet....love when deals can be found

These were removed because they didn't work with most aftermarket carbs. There is a alternate base plate but it can be hard to find too.

I'd like to find something like that for mine with the BBD.
