Slant Edge Bowtie Air Cleaner Gray Crinkle

The Slant Edge Bowtie Air Cleaner Gray Crinkle by PROFORM is a premium intake solution designed for Chevrolet engine builders and restoration enthusiasts who demand authentic styling without compromising airflow efficiency. This classic air cleaner assembly recaptures the iconic bowtie aesthetic that has defined Chevy performance for generations, making it the go-to choice for restorations, custom builds, and street machines that prioritize both form and function. Whether you're rebuilding a vintage small-block or upgrading a modern LS platform, this PROFORM unit delivers the visual impact that transforms an engine bay from stock to show-quality.

Constructed with a durable gray crinkle-finish housing, this slant-edge design minimizes hood clearance issues while maximizing filter surface area for superior air intake volume at full throttle. The distinctive bowtie badge sits front-and-center on the lid, stamping your engine with Chevy heritage while the engineered inlet geometry promotes smooth air velocity into your carburetor or fuel injection system. PROFORM's manufacturing standards ensure dimensional consistency across production, allowing this 14.6-inch assembly to fit precisely into existing engine compartments without fabrication or clearance modification—critical for both concours restorations and practical street applications.

This air cleaner assembly is ideal for small-block and big-block Chevrolet builds from the 1960s through 1990s, fitting both traditional carbureted engines and modern fuel-injected platforms with adapter options. Installation is straightforward—bolt the assembly to your intake manifold using standard fasteners, secure the breather hose, and your engine instantly gains that unmistakable factory-correct appearance. The gray crinkle finish resists corrosion and UV fading, maintaining its aesthetic appeal through seasons of driving, while the compact 5-inch height ensures compatibility with tight engine bay layouts common in classic Chevys and hot rod conversions.
