IMHO,
DO NOT use the Edelbrock triangular shaped (with foam element,) air cleaner
on your car. When I first got my Tiger, it had one of these air cleaners.
I took it to a friend's shop so he could do some minor tinkering and
tweaking I did not have time for. After some adjustments, he went to start
the car and the foam element caught fire. Thank the lucky stars that he had
a Halon fire extinguisher close at hand. Again, MHO, but stay away from
this filter set-up if you can.

Subject: torker& carter AFB
I have a torker alum. intake manifold with a carter AFB sitting on top of it
on my 289. Does anyone know if the edelbrock triangular shaped air filter
or the tiger re-pro (cast aluminum) air filter will fit on the carter and
clear the hood?
Otherwise, I'll have to put the chickenwire back on...
