    Gonna put a Edelbrock performer in my car but want to keep the stock look- will a standard air cleaner fit? Dan

    I had to use a 14" drop base air cleaner. Fit well w/ victor jr intake and edelbrock 1407 750 carb.

    yes I have ran the factory air cleaners before but it seemslike I had to cut the points off of the aircleaner.

    It will fit. I put on the stock air cleaner when I take my '77 for inspection just in case they look under the hood. I think I still have to use a 1/2" spacer because of the fuel line.
