You'll need the original air cleaner and its attaching parts.

Paper type filter air cleaner at left, oil bath at right.

Here's my very original '71 F250. The "hot air box" appears to be an abbreviated version of the '70:

!!!! NOTE !!!!

Measure the inlet diameter on the underside of your air cleaner snorkel. There were, for whatever reason, different sizes.

Alternatively, get the entire assembly from a single donor.

Best of luck finding those parts. I know it was a bear trying to find them for my 71 with a 240.
Glad my 69 already had the important parts - manifold flange and air breather.
