283 air cleaner on 250 6

Is a stock air filter housing from a 283 the same as the one that goes on a 250 straight 6?

Different size base hole.
283 is bigger, as it’s a 2bbl carb.

Well, guess I was wrong.
Thought there’d be a difference between a mono jet and a 2gc.
What carb do you have?

Im not sure I would have to look. The one on the 283 looks like the one on the 250

I don't know if they are the same but yes it will fit. The monojet & the 2 barrel on the 283 have the same size airhorn.

Diameter of what?
The air cleaner itself or the hole?

I check the fit today and think the 283 air filter will work just fine. I just thought the 250 air cleaner might be a little smaller overall
