1970 L-34 Open Element Air Cleaner (your opinion)

[CamarosRus]

Here's my latest "opinion" on the 1970 L-34 Air Cleaner......I just talked to my L-78 seller (I'm the new owner) and he states that the 70 L-34 Air Cleaner base is the SAME as earlier ones except for the length and angle of the breather tube.....so if somebody out there had a 69 or older L-34 base for sale I could remove the tube and fabricate a new copy of the 70 style breather tube using my dual snorkel as a sample....or should I just buy a reproduction and modify it, at least it would have a "nice" lid.......are all the misc repops the same or is someones better?????.....ALSO I believe that ALL the 1970 Camaro L-78's (which were only produced after Jan 1, 1970 when new EPA laws mandated that the engine not be as noisy as with open element L-78 engines) came with the Dual Snorkel Air Cleaner......the assy manual only shows the dual snorkel......thanks, Chuck

Hmmmmmm........ I guess that my April '70 L78 Camaro open element AC filter will not work?

Oh, this came from an original one owner Calif. car.

GM used both, and when they didn't have a particular part........they used what they had. Don't think they stopped the production line to do exactly as some people would like to believe they did.
