Dual Snorkel Air Cleaner

Sorry, I don't have any information on this air cleaner. It's for sale in Ontario on Kijiji with a large selection of Olds and Volare parts.
I've never seen one like this. Anyone else?
It's the only picture I have of it.

It is not the G body H/O and 442. That one has one side shorter than the other and this one looks even

Sorry, folks, but this is a totally fabricated unit. The dual snorkel air cleaner appears to be from a GTO. The ends of the snorkels appear to have been modified to accept the plastic elbows used on the 1970s and 80s cars for the cold air tube.

EDIT: OK, it's not a GTO air cleaner after all - the vacuum actuators on the snorkels are too far outboard. Perhaps it is just an OEM air cleaner with a second snorkel added. In any case, it is NOT anything ever built by Oldsmobile.



The scoops are early 80s Camaro, but the air cleaner certainly is not.

I can't tell for sure but the snorkles look like 2 bbl versions as they are more narrow at the outer end than the 4 bbl & as Joe stated, it is not a factory made piece.

ya know after thinking about it that pass side snorkel won't work on an olds engine as the a/c compressor is right in the way so yeah its some kind of fabrication.i remember working on those late 70's cars with the big round end on the snorkels and the fiber type flex boots from the snorkel to the rad suport housing but not a dual.
