I spent some time reading the posts I could find about air cleaners. Have a question please... I purchased an air cleaner on Ebay a while ago where the seller stated that the air cleaner was for a 67-69 camro 350. Thinking was great, just what I need. Now the problem. My air cleaner measures 15 3/8 " across at the top of the opening. I have found a chrome lid that is for a 67 350 truck that fits that same opening, but nothing for a camaro that size. What is the opening on camaro air cleaners please? I read the black verse chrome debate with great interest. Most likely will go black here. 350 / 4 speed goes in this weekend, can't wait. Thanks again for all your help.

The 350 engine does not use an open element air cleaner. It is closed with a snorkel that has a slight upward tilt. The 350 lid is chrome and the 327/4bbl lid is black. Here is a picture.

There is a real decent reproduction available for less than the price of rechroming the lid. Keep in mind that some have a few oddball holes and vents for like Air Conditioned cars and cars with Air Injector Reactor etc.. If you car is a basic ( Not California delivered ) without AC ( not sure why? ) then the base should have no vent or access holes in it...

Note, the AC cars also had no vent or hole if they were delivered outside of California, for LA built cars.
