    My air cleaners... made them from scratch.
    I have stickers if anyone needs them.
    Round and oval style in red.

    I would say very cheap. Can't be even quality chromed for this money. It's realy hard to compete with Chinese stuff.
    I'm planning for small butch of air cleaners (for 94`s and 97`s carbs) but it will cost some more money for sure.

    Thank You,
    I made them for myself so time and cost were not a big factor. I rolled the lower part from a strip of sheet metal. I rolled the edge and welded it. Then the upper part was spinned and pressed. Fitted to the lower part and welded together with tig. Then I had it chrome plated and it was ready.
