Re: What is the correct air cleaner assembly for 23 series

There's a picture of the motor in the plate part of the 23 rd series manual(on this site) that shows the air cleaner. I think I even posted pix of mine after restoration last year for someone. It's an AC Delco dry type for the 2 bbl Carter carbs and is common to alot of early straight eights, so don't get sucked in for a "Packard" part. Packard didn't make air cleaners or alot of other common parts; brakes etc..
The wet type is kinda duck billed looking and extends across the motor.
