Hi guy's. I have a Hollander interchange manual but can't find info on the breather. I have a 1940 lasalle 5019 with a 322 engine. I would like to know what other cars use the same breather and would fit my 322. Being a GM product a 346 cadillac might work, how's about a Chev or Buick or somthing else. Please steer me in the right direction as to what I could use. Many thank's.

The only air cleaner that will fit is a Cadillac or LaSalle. If you can get a member to send a picture of the correct unit, I may have one available.
Thanks, Bob

Tom,
What is the length of the "can" on yours?

I mean the middle section of the air cleaner that looks like a can,  it's round.

The AC label goes on the top front, not the side. They are available on the web or eBay.

Hi guy's and thanks for your input on the breather. We had a basement flood and lots of damage, the insurance guy will see us on sunday to discuss settlement. My lasalle is now on hold, as winter is coming and at 68 years old I've slowed down and now have a lot of tearing out and replacing floors walls and funiture to deal with. I will at some time in the future make contact again. Many many thanks to the clubs members.

Sorry to hear about your situation. Please keep us posted. I have the correct air cleaner if you end up needing it.
