what is the correct air cleaner for a 73 with a 400 four barrel? what would be the correct air cleaner for a 440? are they diffrent? i just got that Thermoquad and i was thinking if i'm gonna ditch the Edelbrock carb i shouldn't keep the Edelbrock air cleaner. my car came with the Edelbrock stuff when i got it so i don't have the stock air cleaner, and i've been looking into getting a 440 for the car so i'm just curious... i'm not trying to make the car stock.. but i would like to see what my options are. Pics are always good.

thanks

For a '69 Charger R/T with a 440 it is the unsilenced air cleaner like in the following picture. I am not sure if California had this or the dual snorkle..anyone else know?

If you are referring to the '68 and '69 air cleaner shown it is open around the the bottom because the bottom has a smaller daimeter than the top so it is not sealed tight like most others.
