L-88 air cleaner base. ????
I am changing my 69 to L-88 hood, I want to use L-88 air cleaner setup, my question is.
Will L-88 air cleaner base fit Holley Double Pumper carburetors?
Did L-88 use double pumper or vacuum secondary?
Just want to be sure before ordering parts.

I am doing the same thing. I am using a 3933163 Intake manifold and a Holley 4780 (800cfm) double pumper with mech. secondaries. I have an OEM L88 hood that someone had removed the air chamber on so I bought an Ecklers air chamber and an air cleaner kit from Zip with all the other components. I have not tried fitting anything much up yet but I am hoping the geometry is going to work on this. Let us know if you run into problems. I was under the impression that the L88 used vacuum secondaries for some reason or other but I did believe it to be an 850 cfm Holley.
