The Series 6000 2-pound oil-bath air cleaner has a replaceable element.
Replace it with a modern filter with diameter and height approximate to the original element.
Choose a filter with a CFM rating higher that what is needed by the carburetor.
No modifications required.
Fits on carburetors that do not have the center stud style (1960+).
It may look big and bulky but it is practical.
No noticeable affect on engine performance.
That looks WAY easier than trying to hack up the smaller one. I shall be looking for that model filter housing.
