Dual Snorkel Air cleaner?
Anyone have a dual snorkel air cleaner that would fit a '74 Chevy truck 350 with q-jet? Thought it would be different to have one if not I can still use an original.

How about something like this?
http://www.73-87.com/photos/engine/engine28.jpg The installation is easy on a 81-87 because the radiator core support already has cut out holes you can use. The holes are next the head head lights holes!! Visit this webpage for more pictures http://www.73-87.com/photos/engine.htm I would do it to mine but I have a '91 grill upgrade and the core support does not have the holes. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/board/ubbhtml/frown.gif Check www.ebaymotors.com. Search under Corvette or Camaro, dual snorkel. I see setups now and then. The above snorkel will allow you to use a 4" air cleaner compared to a 2.5 or 3 inch factory dual snorkel. ------------------ Gerardo [URL=http://www.geocities.com/abetterchemist/index.html]1983 Custom Truck</A> TX Plates: "BAD BOW" [This message has been edited by gchemist (edited May 10, 2002).] |
I was just wondering if they would fit or if anyone had one laying around. I was looking more for a early 70's vette or late 60's.

Re: Dual Snorkel Air cleaner?
Is there any benefit to the dual snorkel setup?... I know that theoretically if you can force more air into the motor, you can get increased power through pressurizing the system (same concept as cold air intake, turbocharger and supercharger). What I don't know is if the dual snorkel system is capable of increasing air intake enough to make a difference??? Anybody know for sure?

I ran one off of a '68 GTO. The main benefit I got was that I liked the way it looked.

I just left it open. No sense in getting excited over a 180 HP 5.7 TBI......

I do get excited about it though, because it's mine, I've always wanted one and above all I love it. If you offered me $5k for it I'd turn you down without a second thought. Posted via Mobile Device |

I need to finish sandblasting mine then prime and paint it, but I happened to find a picture of one other day on the cc thread. Mine will look just like it except with the tall lid.
I was also wondering if anyone would buy these If I made some like this. (I would upgrade my membership of course) |
Re: Dual Snorkel Air cleaner?
Tony, that's what I want mine to look like and how it will be set up. Just need to get the pieces together, which will probably involve just a single scrap yard trip.

Here is the one on my diesel:
Of course it has silencers installed but same theory. I doubt you will notice any HP gains but you may notice MPG gains. . . . http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/e...enginebay3.jpg |

Yeah, but here's my context: I have an internship with a $300/month stipend and I have to drive 47mi one way to get there.... I could kill that $300 in gas in 2 weeks or less, depending on events. Where are you at that makes $3.69 look good???? |

Re: Dual Snorkel Air cleaner?
The ones on the camaros were only on the h.o. 5.0's, and yes they added hp, on a dyno test in an 87 camaro it gave it 18 rwhp, but that was in a camaro, I have two of them sittin around I jus wish they were taller, and u also can't buy the pieces that hooked to the tubes that went on the core support anymore. I work at a body shop and have done some custom ones for people and they worked out nice, all u need is two cleaners and take the tube off one (some are riveted some are spotwelded) and make a paper templet out of the hole left and trace it onto the other one were u want it and cut it out and have a local shop tack it on and then u can paint however u like. It's really easy.

Re: Dual Snorkel Air cleaner?
I'm looking to do a dual snorkel on my 1984 C30 with the 1987-1991 air cleaner, I have the 2nd snorkel piece but I have to put it on upside-down to look right and when I put a mock setup it will not let me put a plastic snorkel on the driver side because the piece faces the master cylinder.
1984 Chevy C30 crew cab pickup truck 454 V8 with turbo 400 and Dana 70 1986 Chevy K10 Suburban with 350 V8, 700R4 and NP208 transfer case on 10 bolt rear end :chevy::ito::mm::uhmk:;) |
