I agree but for a different reason. It looks to me like maybe it was for a President *SEDAN* - I think the "riser" directly above the carb is too tall, IIRC the C-K bodies with that air cleaner had a real short "riser" and that height looks about like I remember it for a sedan. It possibly could be modded to work because IIRC there's not much difference elsewhere. I believe that there is a bent piece of flat steel that supports the element that goes under a head bolt.

(not really able to speak authoritatively because my car had a '63

2-bbl engine when I bought it - that air cleaner will fit BTW so I would assume that a later 4bbl manifold would as well)

Thanks for the picture John. The part of the air cleaner that you show does not have the two inch piece directly over the carberator that is on the one on e-bay. When I reworked the one I had, like the one on e-bay, I was able to remove that carb piece and drop it down.

Second, the one you show is longer where it goes over the rocker cover. I was able to add a piece of 3" exhaust pipe to mine to look like yours. The same would have to be done to the one on e-bay. Bill

It's a oil bath and looks like the sedan unit. It is supported by a bracket that attaches to (I believe) a head bolt.
