I used to have a dualjet on my v6. It had the d shape air cleaner opening. the stock filter was about 9 7/8 inches diameter. If you cut out the air cleaner bottom around the air filter base you can run whatever 10 inch chrome top you want. It looks like the open element filters you buy.

If you can find a late 70's early 80's Big body Buick with the 252 V6, you just might find a 4 bbl intake that will also fit the 231.
Factory and heavy but a 4 bbl none the less.
Edelbrock used to have a cam/intake package for this engine as well.

its factory in my 79 cutty wagon has front distrbutor on the drivers side. need to know since thinking of cam intake swap dont know if even or od fire for ordering a cam. im sure valve cover dont much matter but look like a sbc just smaller


Well, the front distributor tells me Buick 231. The valve cover description sounds like Chevy 229, but it can't be with a front distributor, so Buick it is... All 78+ Buick 3.8's are even fire.
