Air Cleaner - '66 F250

Hi all. I ditched my Holley 1920 and got an 1100 Autolite from Rockauto. Runs great now and I'm very happy with the carb I got. My old air cleaner does not fit the 1100. Anyone have a source for the correct air cleaner that will fit this carb? The throat is so small and I just can't find an adapter.

Thanks very much!

You may end up using a horn adapter from spectra or another aftermarket company to allow the original air cleaner to sit on it correctly. If you do take into account the extra length for the air cleaner stud.

If you get lucky you may find one on a truck in a wrecking yard...or possibly another FTE member may have one...

This adapter (sorta Y shaped) attaches to the outside of the carb with two screws, has a threaded center hole for the air cleaners stud to thread into.
