Air cleaner rubbing

[JDAVIS3611]

I have a question about my 1970 383 Road Runner. I installed a DP4B intake with a Holley 680 street brawler and my air cleaner is just rubbing on the top. The filter height measures 3.5 inch has anyone had this problem or knows of a filter that will fit. It is the 12.5 round style air cleaner. I really do not want to modify hood thanks

Probably will need to find a drop base for your air filter.

Thanks for the response I did find that K&N makes a filter K-1530 it is the exact dimensions but a 1/2 inch shorter should clear. I will date if works may save someone from facing their base

Yes, either a drop base, or a narrower filter. The filter would be the easiest.

Welcome to FBBO

a good drop-base air-cleaner base, designed to fit a Holley
should/would work

Go to the wix filter site and you can find a different height filter
