Always more tuning to do
I know there has been requests to post our own fixes to common X problems, so when someone asked about my air filters, I thought I would post it in a new thread.
The common box filter seemed a bit too short/restrictive to me, so a few years back I called K&N with the distance between the filter mounting surface and the engine lid and the type of carbs I was running (40DCNF). They told me that these filters were the largest that would fit and they have worked great for me. At $62 each, they are a little pricey, but if you take care of them, they should last a really long time. These filters are under a 1500 hood. Just remember to keep plenty of wax on the chrome so they don't rust. Their chrome is a little cheep and will rust if left alone.
