[Tigers] Air Cleaner Gasket

[Ron Fraser]

Gary

 

The gaskets are flat – I’m guessing 3/8” wide and 3/16” thick and you are correct an O-ring would not work.

 

I don’t think I have every personally seen these original gaskets.   I have seen the original paper filter.

 

It would be nice to have some additional information about the gaskets.

It looks like someone just put in an o-ring.

The drawing in the shop manual looks like

a flat piece.  I can’t picture how an o-ring

could seal against the pleats!?

Here is a picture Jim sent

 

It would be nice to know the width, thickness and material used for that gasket.

 

I thought it was interesting that the air filter cantilevers on the 2 gaskets so more filter area is exposed for more CFM.

Jim you mean a gasket in the recess where the air filter element seats? 

There were originally flat oval gaskets in the recess that the paper AC element would sit into... I dont believe they should have been glued in though.

On the air cleaner topic, my air cleaner had a flat gasket glued inside the housing on both top top and bottom halves. Assuming this is stock ??

Does anyone have a good part number/source for the 5 inch gasket that goes between the stock air cleaner and the stock 2 barrel carb?  It's got to be standard old Ford stuff, somewhere.

 

Thanks,
