Looking for info on a late 09c cowl induction air cleaner. The late 69 cowl air cleaner is ribbed on the bottom and there are a few details in the snorkle and breather tube that is different from a later service replacement. Does anyone have any pics of the tube and the snorkle of a true late original 69 air cleaner?The 69 orange survivor z that Chick knows has the air cleaner I need pics of.Anyone?thanks alot John

My late 09C original cowl induction air cleaner has a FLAT bottom... not a ribbed bottom.  I believe the OTC parts had the ribbed bottoms, as for the '70 Chevelles.   I suppose it's possible that for a period in late '69, they may have had a 'mix' of the (flat bottom) '69 and (ribbed) '70 parts in the assembly line mix...?

It's not suppose it's possible, they did Gary!  Steve Shauger could confirm as he and the vintage team reviewed that car.
John, between getting our 68Z completed, and other commitments I did forget and not place your request high but Skip and I are getting together this week for Corvette Carlisle and hopefully I can check that out and post a couple pictures.
