Guys, just curious to know what was the stock air cleaner that came on my factory 400 , a single or duel "snorkel " unit. I assume all engines that year were blue so would the cleaners been black in color. Can I assume the orange cleaners were on only orange painted motors. Did autos and manuals all get same type and color. Thanks, getting time to find something for my current rebuild.

If it’s a hi-po application dadsbee’ s picture is correct. In 74 the inlets are more oval shaped.
 
Orange all the way for 4 bbl engines.

Awesome, thanks, so the short square inlets were for 73s and the long, more rounder inlets were for the 74s? I think either will work for me...now that I know what I m looking for, will see what prices eBay is offering....thanks...
