Ford 6 cyl air cleaner

[jimbo1948]

I have this air cleaner from a Ford, I believe it is a 6 cylinder because it mounts on the side, dry element. Does anyone know what years and engines this fits?

I am no expert, but I suspect that it is for a 52-53 Mercury or possibly an early to mid 50's Lincoln. I know that the carb's on those used a carb. like the one on my '51 Merc. although my '51 is an oil bath, the air intake is out the back instead of the top like a normal carb. and the mounting clamp for the carb. to air cleaner is the same style as the one in the picture. it is only a guess on my part, I could be completely wrong.

Here is a 1959 Ford with 223 ci. 6 cyl engine, looks pretty similar.

My grampa had a new 57 four door with a 223, it had that filter.

Thanks everyone for the help, the 223 cu in looks like what it is.

This is what the Air Cleaner looks like on a 1942 Ford with the GA Six Cylinder Engine.
