250 air cleaner

All,

I upgraded to a 11" brake booster when adding disc brakes and original air cleaner no longer fits on the monojet single barrel carb. What is best solution? With tighter clearance it seems a 8-9" air cleaner is as large as I can go. The carb has a manual choke so I need to figure out about a 1" rise as well. Any direction would be appreciated.

Safety concern for you.
Move or eliminate that fuel filter.
They tend to crack and leak. Not a good spot over the exhaust.

^ Indeed. I had one of those on my '66 Le Mans that was dripping on the intake manifold exhaust crossover. Crazy. I'm actually considering replacing the fuel filter on my truck with something like the inline filter that the general put between the tank and the fuel pump.
