Since you have six carbs, I would go with six air cleaners. It would be a shame to hide the carbs with one huge air cleaner.
Caliper bracket looks like one I used, 70 Chevelle/Monte Carlo.
Welcome to Virginia. I'm at the oppsiste end of I-81 from you. Highly recomend Dan at Old Dominion Speed and Custom.
Watched him win the World 600 back in 84, I believe. First ever stock car race I saw in person.

Vintage plate or not, if a tag is in use (123-456) then the same number for use as a YOM tag can not be used. I can only speak for Virginia, but...
