• STORAGE -Tired of plastic bags, tape, makeshift repurposed food containers or the bulky air cleaner to store & protect your engine with 4-barrel carb & exhaust manifolds installed. NOTE - heat riser plate on manifold must be closed.

• DISPLAY- Why hide your beautiful restored 4 barrel under that air cleaner at the show or in the garage? They are like jewelry and deserve to be seen!  However, just pulling the air cleaner exposes them to possible dirt and contamination.  Display them with confidence that the "hat" will keep out unwanted contamination and provide cool and custom look. 

• SHIPPING/ENGINE BUILDERS - Take your game to the next level for shipping or transporting your hard work and expertise.  Contact Resto-Nerd for possible customization featuring your LOGO or Company name. 

Materials of construction

3D printed using PLA plastic. PLA is a common filament used by FDM 3D printing due to its ease and accuracy of printing.  It has some of the best mechanical properties of all 3D filaments. It can be obtained in many colors.

UNDER HOOD FLUIDS -I have tested this material by soaking in used antifreeze, used engine oil and gasoline - common under hood fluids - and have seen no degradation dimensionally or structurally. However, soaking in Acetone, Brake Parts Cleaner, Lacquer Thinner of similar solvents with soften the material. Brief wiping with these materials is possible due to the quick evaporation. 

ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURES- PLA is not recommended for any high temperature applications.  The heat deflection temperature is 134F (57C), it is UV resistant and not know to attract rodents (like some electrical wires) even though it is made from bio products such as corn.

Fitment

5-1/8" ID x 2-1/8" deep. I have validated the fitment on Carter AVS, Holley and Thermoquad carbs. Simply install the "hat" onto the carb using your wing nut (no more losing your loose hardware) & install the exhaust manifold end plates to cap off your manifolds. Lightly snug wing nut and fasteners - no need to over tighten!

Note: depending on your air cleaner height, your stud length may need to be adjusted.
