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

Clearance at the top of the velocity stack is not critical, unless the plate at the top of the filter is acting like a lid on a pot. All the velocity stack does is smooth the flow of air into the venturi.......and what is more critical is the radius of the roll at the top of the velocity stack as opposed to it's length.

Save your money for something worthwhile.....like education!

And yes, we ran with open carbs....the engine was torn down after each race anyway.
