Air cleaner inlet flange
« on: March 07, 2013, 07:56:17 pm »
Does anyone have a source for the inlet flange that twists into the radiator core support for the air cleaner ducting?

About six months ago I purchased NOS for my R10 from a dealer in greater Los Angeles.  Go to a local dealership and have them run the OE part number on a national locator.  IIR, there were many still available around the country.

81_Chevy.......I have a dual snorkel air cleaner body, so I was going to run two inlets. The one on my passenger side is there, but I want another for the driver's side. The radiator core support has the cut out already there, I just need the plastic inlet that twists in place.

Thanks bd for the information.

Fairlane, I failed to mention the part has been discontinued and removed from GM's PDC's, but is still available directly from dealers with NOS.  Hopefully, you will find one close by.

I instantly understood what you meant.  But, to hedge your bet, a valid GM part number is cast into the inlet deflector.
