Default air cleaner set up

I want to change out this original setup with the air cleaner that has the housing with two intakes and sets up against the hood when closed. I Like the chrome look with the exposed filter. What about the breather element? What connects to that then? Will this affect performance and need any carb adjustments?

What set up do you have now and what set up do you want to use?

I believe you want this, there should be no adjustment needed, but a picture of your current carburetor would help to insure fit.
