Air Cleaner Kit 14in w/.500 Spacer

The Air Cleaner Kit 14in w/.500 Spacer by ALLSTAR PERFORMANCE is a low-profile intake assembly engineered for engines requiring clean, filtered air delivery with flexible carbureted applications. This dropped-base design serves mechanics, engine builders, and performance enthusiasts who demand reliability and compact packaging in high-heat engine compartments. The 14-inch round configuration integrates seamlessly with standard 5-1/8 inch carburetor flanges, making it a practical solution for custom and stock motor builds alike.

Constructed from aluminum for durability and heat dissipation, this air cleaner assembly features a natural finish that resists corrosion while maintaining a clean aesthetic under the hood. The included 1/2-inch spacer allows fine-tuning of carburetor height and hood clearance—critical for avoiding contact during engine rocking or full-throttle acceleration. The dropped-base design lowers the unit's center of gravity, reducing vibration transfer to the engine block and improving overall stability during sustained throttle application. Element compatibility ensures users can select filtration upgrades based on driving environment and performance requirements.

This kit is ideal for street machines, hot rods, and carbureted performance engines where modern intake efficiency meets vintage aesthetics. The compact 15 x 4.3 x 15.4 inch footprint accommodates tight engine bay layouts while the aluminum construction keeps overall weight minimal at just 3 pounds. Installation requires basic fastener tools and carburetor knowledge; proper spacer orientation ensures optimal fuel atomization and avoids heat-soak issues. Verify carburetor flange diameter and hood clearance before purchase to guarantee seamless fitment on your specific application.
