Too tall. The air cleaner is going to sit back underneath the cowl, so three inches is about all you are going to get there.

Not without a body lift. A 3" tall filter is a snug fit as it is with a .5" drop base.

No need for a 4 to 5" tall filter anyway, your truck will never see use of it.



If a Shelby Cobra with a 427 big block can make use of a 10x2, then your 360 small block will be just fine with a 14x3

Run a 467 Big block with a 10" x 3" with a sock, 6800 rpm, 785 HP on the dyno with no problems on dirt tracks. It was however isolated from all engine heat and drew air from a scoop in the hood.


On the trucks, going to go back to stock type setup B/C for my uses the open filter sucks up too much dirt and engine heat in the summer and water and snow/salt slush in the winter. Just my experience.
