Yes tried them and they look at me blankly not know what the product even is.! I also tried Repco and they said that they are not made anymore ! which is total rubbish as that would mean that every 283 could not be fited with a carb! My wife found some on the net which we can get from the US. We are going to try BNT tomorrow. This is such a basic part, so why are New Zealand motor shop so hopeless! Its really fustrating.

Maybe it's just that the shops are just as confused as us! Are you looking for an air filter element, air cleaner, air cleaner base, 2barrel to 4 barrel air cleaner adapter, an adapter to fit a 4 barrel carb to the 2 barrel manifold! What about trying TradeMe and searching air cleaner under car parts! Going by your later posting about fitting carb, I suspect you are trying to fit a four barrel carb to the original 2 barrel manifold. I would suggest to buy a 4 barrel manifold, or go see a really good engineer to see what he can do. No use putting a 4 barrel on a restrictive hole.

Can you just get a small piece of sheet alloy and make a whole base!

It needs to be about 3/4" high and I'm no engineer.

Just buy a carb,and be done with it,dont do the backyard engineer. If segenins cant help you for anything aftermarket or v8,no one can.
