If that one is off of normans car it was fab up by patterson. If you look it is two pieces put together. If I remember right if you get a quadrajet from a pontiac then adapt it to the 4gc opening. Tom

Ed... That is the standard base from an OEM open element HP air filter assembly. It came on Quadrajet and Holley performance applications 1966-69. Someone has done a clean job of making it work with the 4GC, adapter ring and fuel inlet tube. You most likely will have to make your own from the picture. If you need a base, try Corvette Central or Classic Industries. I hope this helps.

All I know is that if it not a factory air cleaner base,it can not be higher than the choke horn (meaning if you put a strait edge cross it,the choke horn has to hit it.) had to take it off in the 4th round after they saw it when I was getting fuel checked, another UN-written rule,that was in stock
for super stock AIR CLEANERS Optional. If used, air cleaner must be OEM automotive or retain OEM configuration. Air-cleaner base may be cut or trimmed, but welding, bolting, riveting, epoxying, or any other form of fabrication prohibited. Ram tubes, velocity stacks, or other than stock-type base plates or ducting prohibited. Cooling holes prohibited in radiator side panels, etc. Factory air cleaners and/or scoops that fit through hood must be affixed to carburetor as per OEM only.
