Guys trying to track down correct assy for my 69 ss 350 L48. Should the lid be chrome?

Thanks
Dave

The original air cleaner from my L-48 (350 Cu in, 300 HP) is the single snorkel base with a black lid. Also, from what I've read and pictures I've seen, this is correct.

I wonder why LM1's had chrome lids?

A 1969 Camaro SS 350 w/SS hood used the standard production 4-barrel air cleaner assembly with a chrome lid.

A manual trans air cleaner used a plain snorkel; automatics used a snorkel having a vacuum-operated valve with a tube connected to the RH exhaust manifold.

Same chrome lid as the 68 or different?

The reason I thought it was black is because of the air cleaner I have. Plus, the 1969 Camaro Factory Assembly Manual (Page 297) says the air cleaner and silencer assembles same as the RPO L65, shown on Page 305.

Sorry for the incorrect info...but I thought I was right, oh well.

Brian, we have not reached a conclusive answer yet. Your information is useful and appreciated.

Brian,
Assembles the same means it fits together the same way. Doesn't mean anything about the design or finish of the parts.

Pat,
Bill's answer is definitive.

Kurt,
Thanks for clarifying that for me, it's good to keep on learning things like that.
