The Chevelle unit and Camaro unit both use the same A226CW filter. The cowl plenum shown in your post at the top of this page appears to be a repro which uses the more commonly available 17" diameter lid. It has a rubber seal in the outer groove whereas the real cowl plenum lid is 16-3/4" in diameter and does not have a rubber strip for sealing to the base. The "697' filter will fit with the larger diameter lid because it was designed to use that filter in the first place. The larger diameter lid is used for the repro because it looks close enough that most people don't catch it, uses a commonly available filter, and means there is one less piece to have to tool up to get made.

I bought the last two second design White ink stamped 226 CW filters from Steve a year ago. I kept one and shared the second one with a fellow member...I recently was able to purchase the first design with the embossed raised lettering. I was glad to finally finish my CP setup

$7,995 is a pretty good return on the $124.00 investment...
