ID this Carb/Air Cleaner Mount
Trying to determine what this air cleaner mount is for. Carb is likely 49-51 Merc but I have not seen an air cleaner adapter like this. Maybe Truck?.. Lincoln? .. or ?... I found this in a 51 Ford car I bought for parts. rest of the motor was gone. Its going on my Swap Meet table so wandering just what year/make its for....

Re: ID this Carb/Air Cleaner Mount
Going by the throttle linkage hookup either 50 or very early 51 Merc or possibly Lincoln of the same yrs. The carb is definatly a Merc or Lincoln not sure if the air cleaner is correct one though it would be similer. ken ct.

IT's a very neatly made hybrid, combining the best elements of two of America's favorites, seen in the enclosed pictures.

Re: ID this Carb/Air Cleaner Mount
The Holley 885 was not exclusive to Ford or Mercury
It was used on other brand vehicles ( primarily trucks) This is an example of one on a military truck.(not Ford or Mercury)

Re: ID this Carb/Air Cleaner Mount
I have to say "truck"-just don't know which. The Lincolns and Mercuries had 90* adapters to offset the oil bath hangin over the cylinder head (to the Left on Lincoln and to the Right on the Mercury.
