DESCRIPTION
OEM 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle/Camaro/Nova/El Camino/Malibu SS 396 325HP (L35) Automatic Air Cleaner. This assembly has been media blasted and refinished in the correct semi-gloss black finish to present a period correct image. The single snorkel with round end is in excellent condition and correct for the one year automatic and the base features a reproduction Air Cleaner Service Decal (CT=1969). Note that the snorkel is canted downward (slightly) and is angled towards the corner of the passenger side fender (69 specific). New white-striped vacuum lines attach to the ThermAC vacuum and correct ATS to augment the original appearance. An original date stamp has been added for for further authenticity as a nice finishing touch.
An original black dimpled lid enhances the classic musclecar appearance and includes an original seal. To complete the package, a new heavy duty air filter, breather filter, and period correct wing nut are included. To add further distinction, GM licensed 396 Cross Flags and Turbo-Jet 325HP decals are included (temporarily installed - permanent installation to be made by the buyer as required) and complement the overall assembly.
This assembly presents very well and will enhance your restoration. Best of all, it is a genuine GM part!

396/325HP Chevelle SS/Camaro SS/Nova SS /El Camino Automatic
Note: automatic equipped cars featured the ThermAC valve on the top of the snorkel, along with the plastic pre-heater duct and hose connected to the exhaust manifold. 4 speed air cleaners were not required to feature this emissions requirement.

The assembly will fit factory 4 barrel Quadrajet carburetors with a 5 1/8" diameter flange, as well as Holley (non double-pumper), Carter, and Edelbrock variations without electric choke (some adjustment to the carburetor alignment tangs may be required). If you have modified your carburetor, intake manifold, or valve covers, please inquire first prior to bidding to ensure fitment is correct. Return requests for non-fitment will not be honored.
It will not correctly fit the 68 models due to the orientation of the snorkel and valve cover breather filter outlet location.
