[DeTomaso] Best stroker kit for a Cleveland

Available now: drop-base air cleaners in 1", 2" and 2-1/2" base-drops (maybe others too). And commonly avail. 14" dia elements are 2", 3" and 4" thick. So saying 'drop-base air cleaner' means close to nothing in terms of the height of the assembly top without the accompanying numbers. Maybe I missed them?
FWIW- J DeRyke

On the K&N filter web site there are suggestions on air filter area,
and it looks like they think we need a lot bigger filters, like 100 sq
in? That would be about 5 inches high a for a 14 inch diameter filter.

I believe I have the standard Mustang version of the Blue Thunder
(angled carb pad). I'll double check tonight. Also, I believe I
have
an earlier engine screen (it's all screen and slopes down at the
window.
The air filter is a Hall drop base air filter with the cast aluminum
"Pantera" script lid. I did try a stamped lid as well without
success.
Cheers!
Garth

Garth,
WHICH Blue Thunder intake do you have? The standard Mustang version
or
the Pantera version?
I had to change to a different air cleaner to get it to fit under my
screen when I put new rubber engine mount donuts in. With the old
ones
my existing Hall/K&N fit fine. I had to get a different, thinner lid
with the new mounts as it raised the engine a tiny bit....

Uh, no it DOES NOT.
I have a Blue Thunder intake on my Pantera at the moment with a
Holley
670 Avenger carb and NO carb spacer, and the drop base air cleaner
does
NOT fit under the stock screen.
Cheers!

Excellent write up, but you forgot that of the intakes tested the blue
thunder w
as among the best, and it DOES fit under the stock screen....
