hey guys...
i have web 44's with 3" stacks and 3/5" air cleaners. to fit the rainshields on the carbs i had to use .75" aluminum spacers on the threaded rod instead of spacing it..id like to run taller air filters. do they make a 4" or a 4.5"? i made longer studs.....so height isnt an issue. is ther any magic to velocity stack height vs aircleaner height? please advise |

A K&N may help a bit if your comparing it to a stock paper type filter, doubt it is any better than other filters in an application like ours though.
At Sebring a while ago I talked to Alwin Spring from Porsche Motorsports and he said that any filter at all, even a coarse screen, hurt peak horspower compared to an open intake. It always blows my mind when I see race cars with open stacks. Some of these engines cost over $100,000 and they don't seem to give a damn about sucking in dirt and grit. I guess they have deep pockets and lots of parts in the trailer. |
