Product Details
Features
- Round steel housing offers a classic, factory-style air cleaner profile

- Recessed base fits standard carbs — not compatible with electric choke
- Includes mounting hardware for a complete, ready-to-install kit
Description
This air cleaner kit uses a 14" x 3" round steel housing with a black finish and a recessed base design, giving it a clean, understated profile for the engine bay. It includes a washable, reusable red filter element rather than a disposable paper filter, along with mounting hardware for a complete installation.
The recessed base will not clear an electric choke — if your carburetor uses an electric choke housing, this base style won't fit over it. This is otherwise a universal-fit kit, not matched to a specific carburetor or throttle body flange size, engine, or vehicle. Confirm your carburetor's choke type and flange size against the base opening before ordering, and verify total assembled height against your available hood clearance.
Applications
This is a universal-fit air cleaner kit with a recessed base, not matched to a specific engine or vehicle. Not compatible with carburetors using an electric choke — confirm your choke type before ordering.
Installation
Includes mounting hardware. Match the base opening to your carburetor or throttle body flange size before installing, confirm your carburetor does not use an electric choke, and verify total assembled height against available hood clearance.

Q&A
Will this air cleaner fit a carburetor with an electric choke?
No. The recessed base does not provide sufficient clearance for an electric choke housing. If your carburetor uses an electric choke, a compatible flat-base air cleaner should be used instead.
What size carburetor or throttle body flange does this air cleaner fit?
The listing does not specify a neck flange size. Verify your carburetor or throttle body flange dimensions against the air cleaner base opening before ordering.
What's the difference between this and the chrome recessed-base version?
This version has a black finish, while the chrome version (SKU 53ACK14327) has a chrome finish. Both use the same recessed-base design, red washable filter, dimensions, and electric choke clearance restriction.
Does this kit come with mounting hardware?
Yes. Mounting hardware is included with this air cleaner kit.
Is the filter washable or disposable?
The kit includes a washable, reusable red filter element rather than a disposable filter.
Do I need to check hood clearance before installing this?
Yes. Verify the total assembled height and available hood clearance before installation.
Does this air cleaner require California emissions certification?
According to the product's emissions notice, this air cleaner does not require a California Executive Order (EO) exemption. Verify any application-specific requirements that may apply to your vehicle.
