Is this air cleaner correct for 1970 914-6? Am I missing any components?
I went through the other air cleaner threads I could find. A couple things about our plastic one that seems curious when I compare it to the photos I'm finding of others identified as 914-6:
Thanks. P.S. I am unclear about the fittings. My best guess is the small single port metal one is a water drain valve and big plastic one with two outlets is oil breather? Not sure how to connect either. |

That air cleaner won't work with a 914-6. It uses clips that are attached to the MFI stacks. The 914-6 uses metal buckets with the clips that bolt to the carbs.
The six air cleaner doesn't have the individual holes for the stacks either. |

The PET only shows so much |
