I am looking for the wire that secures my Weiand trianglular shaped fly-eye air cleaner element. See pix.

Thanks! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

Thanks for the feed back guys. Are you referring to the wire hold-down strap or the whole unit? I want to use my original fly eye unit, but have unfortunately lost my wire hold-down strap.

buy the whole deal new, run the old parts you like use the new foam and clip and keep your pocket fire ext handy http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif

FYI- Bud recommended I contact Edelbrock about a hold down bracket I was missing for my Fly Eye air cleaner. I called and 2 days later there was one in my mailbox free of charge. Talk about a great company.
