When I bought my non-running 76 1500 it came with a Pierce manifold and
a DGV. After spending a few hours with a grinder I coerced the stock
exhaust manifold into playing nice with the Pierce manifold.
Unfortunately it didn't come with an air filter and my wife's hosiery
will only last so long, particularly if it backfires (don't ask).
Webercarbsdirect.com has DG air cleaner assemblies in 1 3/4 and 2 1/2"
heights. Obviously I'd prefer the 2 1/2" but I'm uncertain if this will
clear the factory bonnet. Any suggestions? Also if anyone can provide
a cheaper or better source I'd be happy to hear about that also.
