I just sold a set 2 weeks ago, I guess these were used on some Yenko models, maybe the stage 1 & 2 street versions? I had 3 sets of them and have one set on my Corsa and sold the other 2 sets to Yenko guys. Personally although cool I think they are not that great, they don’t seal well to the top of the carb and the set screw always comes lose and they fall off, I had to drill a tiny divot in the carb body and make a pointed set screw much like the fuel pump bolt so the screw would have a nice place to sit and then put lock tight on the screw so it wouldn’t back out, that seems to keep them on better, Good luck in your search! :tu:

I put a longer center screw in them and doubled up (Stacked) the air cleaner elements for more flow, you can see the bottom filter in these pics, I also added a PVC system to them. before I did the set screw mod they would always fall off. I sold the other 2 sets for good money to Yenko guys because I thought these things sucked! LOL
