Title: WANTED: CHROME AIR CLEANER TOP FOR 1965 401 GS STOCK AIR CLEANER, 2X4 lID IS OK
Post by: Lightweights4me on April 26, 2012, 05:14:33 PM
Hi Guy,  Im looking for a Chrome Air Cleaner Top for my 1965 GS 401 Stock Air Cleaner.  I believe the Top from  Factory 2 x 4 or Dual Quad Air Cleaner Top will work.  Does anyone have anything that they would considering parting with?   I also need a Pair of 401 Nailhead Chrome Valve Covers.  I have stock Aluminum Valve Covers but I want a Pair of Chrome Valve Covers.  I will consider all but prefer Nice pieces.    As far as the air Cleaner Top goes, I will consider anybut prefer decent chrome.... Im not looking for SHOQ QUALITY pieces but I would like them to be fairly Nice.  The Air Cleaner Top doesnt have to be that nice... just a Chrome Top.   Thanks again for your help..... Please PM me ..... Lightweights4me

Hi,

The lid Jim just gave the link to is a correct stock lid for a single 4bbl. air cleaner.  They all came painted black on a Skylark GS.  The one in the link must have come off a 63 Riveria since it is red.  The Buick accessory chrome dress up kit came with a chrome air cleaner housing, but it still used the black painted lid.   If you want a chrome lid, you are going to have to get one chromed.   The 2-4's lid is chrome, but it won't fit on the single 4bbl air cleaner.
