Where does everyone buy the small 3 or 4" diameter air filter used in the common 94 & 97 air cleaner assemblies? I've read alot about the cheap foreign filters that come with them and found out first hand they suck - literally. The 292 Y-block in my '55 ford won't even idle right with the cheap POS that came with the assembly. Who sells a decent high flow filter? Here's a pic of the setup on my '55.
Mooneyes has some cool cast finned ones for like $39 or something. Very cool and well made! www.mooneyes.com
If you want maximum CFM and don't mind spending the money,Summit carries the K&N filter elements for these filters. Street Rodder did a study about 10 years ago measuring CFM of paper vs. K&N on Rochester 2 barrels and the paper flowed about 75 and K&M flowed about 150.
Motorcycle shop? I think K & N makes quite a variety. Go here for their selector. Just put in the dimensions you need and then, viola! http://www.knfilters.com/search/universal.aspx
Wasn't VAPhead here on the HAMB selling small ones in the classified section just last week...or two? Supposed to be a GREAT guy to deal with as well!!!
I've got K&N's on some of my other motors and they are great. I might try to go that route with these. I might even go with some old helmet style with the built in screens. They mainly keep the big chunks out, but you don't get alot of dust/dirt driving down the paved roads of today.
