Those of you with drop base air cleaners...
Quick question for you. For the 14" model with a drop of 7/8", did you have to buy the offset one to clear the HEI distributor? I plan on getting the K&N model 60-1430 but want to make sure it'll fit properly before ordering. Thanks.

The one I have is 1-1/4" drop. I didn't have trouble with clearance for anything. The only issue I had was the fresh air PCV inlet that goes to the stock air cleaner housing - 3/4" nipple breather cap took care of that.

Thanks for the quick help 
Another item gets checked off the list of things to do hehehe. Next on the list, a possible 327 engine swap to take place of the 305
