air filter for 394.1 engine

[gregleck]

Asked at my local auto parts store about the availability of an air filter for my 1962 Dynamic 88.  They can order one, a K&N replacement, priced at $80.00

 

What alternatives, if any, are there?

 Any air cleaner that will fit a Rochester 4GC should work. There use to be an adapter that would bush up the smaller size throat of the 4GC to fit the later and larger Q Jet and AFB air cleaners, I haven't seen one advertised lately but there again I haven't been looking for one ether.....Tedd

If all you are looking for is a factory replacement filter element, Wix P/N 42081, about $6 on RockAuto.

That's the same Wix filter that I posted above (42081), for 40% more money.
