No I didn’t but will tomorrowI think its the intake,did you measure the height? I think there are threads on this.
Yes that is true but these cars came as GTX with an RB 440 and this air cleaner came from a 1967 GTX with an RB 440. So I am only thinking it’s the manifold??? That’s my guess?Hi & HoHoHo Ya Know..............................
Bytheway.................
Isn't A 383 A "B" Block & A 440 Is A "RB" Block ? The RB's Have A Taller Deck Height For Starters & Ill Bet The Aftermarket Intake Does Too.
How About A Lower / Offset Pan For The Air Cleaner May Work. Don't know offhand who sells em . Nice Ride !! MoPar2Ya! John
Okay I will check in the morning and try just surprised how much taller the air cleaner was I hope your right! ThanksA standard Performer isn't very tall, Performer RPM is tall... How much curvature does the cowl have? Look straight from the top of the radiator to the cowl..... It's not uncommon for the air cleaner to sit higher than the fender tops but the hood has more curve/bulge that you think....
I will keep you posted! Thanks for your help!I just checked, 67 & 68 440 use the same Pt# intake, the 68 intake is virtually the same height as a performer...
Edelbrock carburetor stock base as I was told it came from a 1967 GTX. Don’t have the part number or where to know where to look on the air cleaner to find part number. Do you know what the air cleaner part number is? It appears to look the same as I have seen on 1967 GTX?What carb?
What base on the air cleaner?
That is not a 67 gtx aircleaner either. But it will fit underhood with stock parts.
Damn dude I purchased years ago before I knew about nicks and forbbodies! I feel dumb but I was mistaken. Thanks for the clarification. I wonder if 68 is taller? Which one is worth more? Do you know? Thanks so much for your help!I think you have a 68 air cleaner, pretty sure the 67 carb has the smaller neck, 68 is the same as modern Holley's & Edelbrocks... first Link is a 68 air cleaner.

Isn't a stock 66 or 67 intake shorter than a 68 up? I have a 66 and a 69 stock intake and the 66 is shorter than the 69.
