    Mouting plate DGAV - Air filter Escort RS2000

    hi,

    Does anyone know where I can find / buy the mounting plate (or how is it called) to bolt the Air Filter to the DGAV carburettor?

    HELP!

    It's for the escort mk2 RS2000.







    regards,
    Ruud

    If the diameter of the filter mount is 5 & 1/8" (i.e. the same as any regular Holley carb), then perhaps the Redline weber adapter will do the trick, e.g.:

    Not sure if it helps but..
    There are two types of Standard ford filter housing.
    Blue ones had the single bolt like the one you have. Later ones had two longer fixing screws and no plate.
    Plates are hard to obtain these days, maybe better getting a direct mount black filter housing (also fitted on some capri's etc) which come-up on ebay from time to time.

    yep...I know. But want to go original

    ps. I have a directly mounted filter housing until I find the adapter plate.
