    Which years are these from?

    Hi,
    For my 70T Euro engine with Zenith carbs I was missing the bottom part of the airbox. I bought a replacement, but whilst it fits the airbox, the clips don't line up. I assume I have some mismatching parts. Please can you identify the years that the top and bottom parts are from. I'm in the process of cleaning up the original engine tinware and other parts (yes, the airbox will be repainted) and will then store it as I currently have a 3.2SS engine installed in my 70T.
    You can see from the pics that the on the top part of the airbox both inner clips are offset, whereas on the bottom part, only one part is offset, whereas the other is at 90 degrees.

    Any ideas anyone? I believe the top part is an MFI airbox. Was there a difference between the MFI and Carburetted cars?

    The orange piece is for a 70+ car. The vent elbow has the extra pipe for the fuel vapor recovery system that was not present on 69 cars

    There is a thread around here that talks about the different clips, bases, etc.
