Air filter/ breather: original oil bath vs. modern paper style

The trouble you'll find in trying to locate an aftermarket replacement air cleaner assembly is it'll be tough to find one that fits the top of your stock carb. Most all are designed for a modern Holley-type top. Even the 'hot rod' ones you find that fit flatheads are for use on car carbs, and truck carbs are different. 6 cylinder carbs have an even smaller neck and v8 air cleaners don't fit those. Alternatively, you can try this, depending on the look you're after...
