Hi Guys,
 
I hate asking this group silly questions, but I've run into a dead end  
searching for a new air filter.
 
I have a Carter 500 carburetor and the chrome air cleaner that fits on top  
of it.  When I put it together, I bought what I wrote down in my notes was  a 
Mr. Gasket 1480A Air Filter.  Also right next to that number, I've  written 
NAPA 7445.  Neither number means anything to any of the car parts  places I've 
called, and I've taken my air filter in to several custom and normal  auto 
parts 
stores and have not found a match.
 
It's 2" tall and 14" in diameter.  Any idea here / how I might find a  new 
one ?
 
Also, I've just put Rover rocker covers on my Rover 3.5 L engine.   Toward 
the front of the cover are a couple of little threaded holes that I've  filled 
with a 10-24 bolt.  What I'm looking for is the little spark plug  wire holding 
piece that goes in that spot.  The Vicky Brit catalog for TR8  doesn't show 
it.  Anybody know where I can get those?  I'll start  calling used parts places 
and try to find a set off of a wrecked Land/Range  Rover or Discovery.
 
Safety Faster......with a V8,
 
Rick
