Tri Power Air Cleaner ID ?
 
Does this look familiar to anybody? It is a bit different than the ones I have been able to look up on the internet.

In 1966 Pontiac went to the larger center carb, so it's 65 or earlier. By the dimples on the bottom, I'd say 57, 58, 59 or 60.

Oldsmobile only had three small carbs, so that's out.

Come to think of it, the 57 and 58 Pontiac both used three of the smaller carbs, so that leaves them out too. Too bad you only have the bottom part as it's not worth much with the center section and the top missing.

I have no idea but didn't Cadillac & Olds also have factory tri-powers in the 50's?

Caddy tri-powers were 59 and 60 only. That is another possibility though. Olds had them in 57 and 58, but had the three smaller carbs.

Mine is similar in carb configuration to the Cadillac but mine is off center and the dimples are a bit different.
