Air cleaner riser.
Where can I buy an air cleaner riser for a Rochester carb. I have a 327 eng. It now has HEI dist. The plastic riser I now have hits the choke linkage.

Re: Air cleaner riser.
should be available at local auto parts store. or try a site like summitracing.com
four barrel? stock air cleaner, or aftermarket? if aftermarket use a flat base instead of the concave style to raise air cleaner. |

Re: Air cleaner riser.
I can't use a stock air cleaner, because it will hit the HEI distributer. The plastic riser that I have hits the choke linkage.

Re: Air cleaner riser.
When I put HEI on mine I had the same issue. I bought a riser off ebay. (I believe a mid 70's truck?)
Here is one for sale like I got. I like it too as it gave me the tube for the breather http://www.ebay.com/itm/Air-Cleaner-...item417adfcb2e Edit: Too add. I bought the Mr. Gasket riser set from advanced auto. It fit horribly on my quadrajet. It wouldn't seat well. That's when my Dad gave me the idea on the factory riser.

Re: Air cleaner riser.
If you have a pic-a-part yard (or any wrecking yard) close by these are very common item in several different sizes. Came on many GM cars and trucks
