DRDIRT11 Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 I know ive read it on here before and lookd for it but i cant find it. Was wondering what size inlet for a 350, 402, and 454 so I can identify mine on my 402. Back in the day (89) i had several parts cars and i think i put a 350 air filter assembly on my 402 because it was better condition. thank you!
robs70monte Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 you and tell the 350 is a small and round the 402 is a small oval and the 454 is a big oval i have 2 454 air cleaners and like a dozen 350 2bbl and 4bbl ones
Canuck Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Here's a photo of all three. The SS454 one is on top, small block in the middle and 402 on the bottom.
DRDIRT11 Posted February 12, 2012 Author Posted February 12, 2012 Thank you, I thought I was gonna have to list it in that word association thread. That seams to be the only activity on here anymore. The picture is great.
stangeba Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Aaron, Cool picture. I didn't realize the 400 was different than the 454. Bruce
DRDIRT11 Posted February 12, 2012 Author Posted February 12, 2012 Mine is correct. I thought it looked small but the 350 is smaller. thank you again.
MCfan Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Thanks for sharing that photo, Aaron. It confirms my understanding, also. My SS454 car came with a 454 wearing a 402 aircleaner (see photo below) and my 402 car came with a modified engine wearing a chrome aftermarket air cleaner. Â Â My intention is to keep the SS car very close to original in appearance (except the tires) so I am in the market for a true 454 aircleaner. Since I don't ever plan to put a stock aircleaner back on the 402, I would be happy to trade someone my 402 body (lids should interchange) for a 454 body. The only problem is that I couldn't work a trade until I get the SS car out of storage in late April. Â Otherwise, I will continue looking for a 454 air cleaner body or assembly to acquire outright. Sounds like there might be some available.
Sam (Bones) Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 looks I have a 402 and a 350 air cleaner, nice info
DRDIRT11 Posted February 12, 2012 Author Posted February 12, 2012 I think this should be in the tech section. I looked there when tryin to find this info. Im going to copy this and put in my paper file I have at work. "monte stuff" call me old fashion.
ripleydale Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 My only disclaimer is that I don't know for a fact the 402 air cleaner in Aaron's picture is really from a 402 (my original picture). I think it actually came from a 74 or 75 454. If someone has a real 402 and can confirm the snout looks like that, I would feel better. The big snout is from my 71 SS, and the round one is from a small block.
DRDIRT11 Posted February 13, 2012 Author Posted February 13, 2012 I think it is correct because the one on my car would only have two possibilities. A 350 or a 402 because mine is a 402 and my parts cars were 350s. Mine looks like the bottom one.
