Anyone running a K&N element in your original filter housing for driving purposes?? may be anouther brand of re-useable filter?

I'm not currently using one that is the Hi-Po style (am using one on the Paxton) but found this one on summit that is a close match. It is 2.313" x 14". You can do a search on the summit website if that is not close to the original filter size.

Z.

p.s. I have read that using the "K&N power top" can really be a measurable difference in HP on a dyno.

not sure why you would want to. I have read that the same setup Zray refers to does NOT make a significant measureable difference on the dyno, but I'm sure there are many reporting different things. As for my personal experience on my fastback (not a HiPo, but built better than one), we ran the chassis dyno with and without the air cleaner assembly all together. The difference was about 1 HP. This was with the nicer reproduction style with a new element.
