Do Not Buy The Pro-form!!!!
Ok, This is why I say dont buy the Pro-Form Air Clener from Edlebrock. I purchased one from AutoZone about 2 weeks ago and slapped it on my 82 T-top....Looked really nice. So, anyways, I popped my hood today and I go to take off the air cleaner (cause Im swapping carbs) and what do I find? a BIG cunck of the foam is missing, it luckily fell inside the lip of the air cleaner....I took it out and looked at it, it seems it just broke off and if that had fell into carb and somehow made it into my engine, I dont think performance would have been happeneing anytime soon. So, this is to day DO NOT BUY THE EDELBROCK PRO FORM AIR CLEANER!!!! It is junk and definately not worth any money....Sadly, Im stuck with mine.....But I dont want to see fellow carb 3rdGenners buy one and regret it.
