Louis,

Thank you for that in-depth explanation of the two open
element air cleaners I asked about. I have a 69 & I can
locate a 70 base if needed. I can confirm that the tube
on the 70 version is indeed different that the 69 version.

So, I guess we will go with the 70 base and be done with it.
BTW, while on this topic, are the chrome lids to the open
element air cleaners any different between years? I suspect
not, but I should ask to be thorough.

Also, I ditto the request regarding the repro units. I'd sure
like to know if they are different ( wrong ) as well.

Steve
