Hi Tony
I'm Ignacio hapoy new years
Im.alao looking for an air cleaner mine being 70, I have a 73 that I might trade not sure yet. I'm on vacation, I learned 71 72 had 2 heat risers on botom.and 70,73-75 only had 1 the 70 bowl is bigger requiring a bigger air cleaner. There are restamps or repops available too. If you run across a 70 let me know and if I buy one I'll sell you my 73. I'm new to site. If your not concerned with heat stove or factory correct stuff buy a repip from parts palace they only 399 new and it's a 74 bowl base

The 1971 & 1972 air cleaners with two heat risers on the bottom were only used on the 455HO engines, which are round ports. I'm pretty sure ram air was an option on the D-port motors, which only had one heat riser.

Im.not sure on the repop reviews but by direct from The parts Place go on web site. They sell the whole kit with boots and brackets . You have choices too. If you want heatvstove riser vent fir warming up car or not. You can also ask in our section on formula cars. I haven't head of them failing so I think they are good. If your set on an original they might be more expensive than repop but I'm not 100 sure. I seen a 74 nos for 1200 a few months ago. And another nos for 2500. IF YOU WANT GENUIM GM ILL LOOK INTO IT FOR YOU.
