    Correct Air cleaner housing and snorkel for '66 with webbers

    Hi, I'd like to find out which is the correct Air cleaner housing and snorkel for 1966 911 that has webbers. I've seen some with the single clamp on top of the housing and some with clamps on the sides. Which one is correct?

    Any help would be much appreciated. Photos will also be a big help.

    Regards,

    Jay

    As I remember correct does John his air cleaner have an Mann id tag (on top). Since my car had sport kit rain shields I obtained a set of 3 clamps air cleaners w/ and w/o Mann id tag. Question, till when were aircleaners w/ Mann id tag's used?

    That's a good question Richard. My car, 304524, is not too far away from yours. Thanks 304065. I'd like to hear some more feedback out there.

    12, 8 and 4. Top clip is installed 1st as it has no fold over locking mechanism. The 8 and 4 do.

    Hi Jay,

    Here is the snorkel on the car one number before yours (304523). It has a very original engine bay. It too has three clamps at 12, 4, and 8.

    Hello Richard... no, the main air cleaner housing on 304523 does NOT have the Mann tag, nor any other tag. The snorkel is marked Mann as shown in my earlier post.

    Hello Bill thanks. I forgot I have a few photos of your car but the pics with air cleaner wasn't that visible so thank you, that clears it up for me then. Hows 523 coming along?
