>>1973 mini cooper clubman left hand drive<<

hmm, the brake and clutch masters and wiper motor appear to be positioned for Right Hand Drive.

I'll see if the air filter housing I have looks like what you want. If you are going to the Open House in Nevada City, next Saturday could bring it along.

It looks like you have other issues going on besides the hose.  From the photo, the lid does not seal against the body of the housing.  From what I see, it appears that either you have a metal bottom housing and a plastic lid, or the tabs that secure the lid in place are missing.  You are correct in that you will need another air box.  Where are you located?  It always helps to fill in your profile so others know who they are dealing with, and the city that you are in.  Sometimes there are local folks that could help you if they just knew where you were.  I have a few spare air boxes, but let's see if miniboo can help you first--I'm not trying to jump infront of his offer to you.

1 . MiniBoo-  That picture is too small for me to see, I've tried to blow it up but I can't. Could you e-mail that or blow it up? Also, Will the air box have fit my car?

 

2. I'm a dummy when it comes to car parts, what would I exactly type to search for this part on ebay?

 

3. I've tried to find hoes to fit the airfilter but no luck. I was told this filter is "sufficating" the air flow and causing it to run not at it's best. This car has "mad" getty up power, I just want to improve the power.

Hey I bought a 1973 mini cooper clubman left hand drive (frame is a 1969) and it doesn't have all the right parts in the engine.

Not sure what or how it's called but I need to get a fitted air box. Minimania doesn't sell it and they recommend me to post it online. Does anyone have one they don't need or an extra one???

I was told the small hose that's connecting underneath is the right size but I need one that actually fits to the small air hose and not sit on it. - ( See picture ) The one I have in the picture is to big and doesn't fix.

If anyone can help me get one or at least point me in the right direction.

THANKS ALOT
