For my 383 engine I purchased a performance series Edlebrock carb. The air intake horn is 5 1/8 inches round. My old Mopar air filter housing will not fit on top of the carb., the opening is too small. I would rather have old Chrysler or Mopar Performance sitting on top of this carb. What do I need to buy?
Looking forward to ya'lls advice
Thanks Joe

Mopar Performance makes a nice aftermarket air cleaner. I believe Summit carries them.

I am not 100% sure what year the air cleaner is from. It is a twin snorkel with rectangular openings. The car is a '68 Charger.

If I can't use the old Chrysler air filter housing unit, I saw a filter housing at Mancini Racing part #MPPP4529001. I wonder if it would fit on the Edlebrock? I wanted to be able to use the pie pan I purchased and the pie pan won't fit on the Moroso's or other aftermarket units.
