Hi, just finished bead blasting the base of my air cleaner. Was about to do the lid and saw the rubber gasket in the lid. Is this sold seperatly. Also hoping to see a finish air clean assembly so I know the locations of any decals. thanks

I know at one time you could get the gasket from Mopar. It took two of those to do a lid, IIRC. Don't know if they still offer it.

What is the length (approx but add a couple inches) of that seal?

I made a tool to die cut those once but miscalculated and made it too short (I made the tool in the shape of a spiral to maximize the material useage) I'll have to try again

Give me a week and I'll have them. I'll play with my CAD LISP spiral program again.
