Weiand Fly Eye Hold-down Wire

[mockingbird812]

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

Thanks!

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

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.

Bud - yeah, I have already established my start up procedures. step 1: remove air cleaner assembly....
