I heard from Dave at Roseville that the CA332V will be shipping in the next week or so.
Is this the correct air filter for both a 1970 Challenger T/A and a 1969 Hemi GTX with fresh air hood?
THANKS in advance.

JUST an FYI --
Dave posted on the CC.com board - filters are in. they are on his website - pricing about $142.0 I think.
They look really nice - very nice workmanship

Got me a NEW Project 1970 GTX 440+6, 4 spd, 4.10 Dana and N96 FE5 (top/bottom) and black bucket interior. Original transmission and Dana - Engine is a service replacement block.
Body has all stamped #s + VIN/TRIM tag and door sticker. Been hunting like all hell to find the Build Sheet.
garage find, only had 41,850 miles on ODO.

Forgive my ignorance. But if reproductions have been made once already, why would anyone have to "tool up" to make another run??
EXACTLY!
Quote:
There is no RETOOLING cost, Fram has had the tooling and the tooling has been paid for. The last production run by Fram was only five or six years ago for the last batch IIRC.
My point was not the cost of making tooling, but you still have to set the assembly line to manufacture. And that quite likely means removing another product from assembly while making this one.
Understand but one of the Pacific Rim manufactures will have one here shortly and there will be no need for Fram to do anything anyway. Just like the chrome valve cover breathers for the '68 and '69 models that are now available there's no reason to look for a good original or to get an old worn original re-chromed....80+K '69 road runners and then there's the GTX, R/T, Super Bee, etc, that used that filter (I know it was a small number that had the air grabber/ramcharger but there are also people that want to add that system, like me).....someone is going to make a buck or two and it won't be Fram.
Hey FRAM ITYS

I'm just glad them re-did them. Maybe everyone sending them emails really worked.
Perfect or not, they look way better than the alternatives at a price that isn't going to break the bank. I'm sure there will still be NOS ones for the people who want to spend the extra money.

That's a good question, I'm not sure. Does anyone know if the CA 332 is correct for both the Challenger T/A and a 69 Hemi GTX (N96)? Quote:

Might be me but from the picture it looks as if the metal band is flat,not punched from the inside like the original.
I agree 100%, how were the Fram filters punched?
The Fram CA332V was punched from the inside similar to what Bill posted, but the edges of the holes are not as pronounced.

I don't think they look good at all! The holes are too big leading to the remaining aluminum to be too narrow. I'm glad I have a couple of new filters and a used mesh.

I can't believe someone went to the effort to repro this and didn't even punch the holes like original. And the hole spacing is off too.
The hole mesh looks off the shelf.
Problem is, if there was another project in the works for a more correct repro it will probably stop now that these are out.

Well,that didn't take long and it was certainly worth the wait! Thanks to everyone who stayed positive, called, emailed and just generally helped keep the ball rolling after I started this thread. The Ebay Creeps are going back under their rock. (Zero listings. )
