Hi All,
I have been waiting for over a year now for a '61-'62 2x4 air cleaner from one of the major aftermarket suppliers for my '59. I want the later model because it is unsealed, unlike the one I have which is the sealed type. I was told by the customer service guy that they have no idea when the new ones will be available and to "look on ebay for a used one". I've looked and, if you can find them, they look pretty bad.
So, I'm wondering can I actually cut mine open at the point where the upper body meets the lower lip and, essentially, turn it into an unsealed type. I would take it to a machine shop to have this done as I don't trust my old shaky hands to do it with a dremel.
Let me know what you think,
Bernie O
