After tearing off the air filters to check them for the first timer since I bought this car, I discover something that completely shocked me.....
The air Filters are "Filtron", and they are a sealed, 1 piece unit (not a top, a bottom, and the filter). Then I discover that the filters have no gauze, no paper, nada... just a series of heavy wire mesh screens...... So I'm weirded out enough when I discover a sanndstorm would completely ruin my engine. Secondly...... the carbs are "Solex"...... so they have 5 boltholes for the filter, not 1 like a Weber or a Delortto. The question...... I need a K&N air filter setup for dual Solex Carbs, with 5 boltholes.... can anyone help me out??? Part #'s? Suggestions? Anything???? Oh... sorry for the pic quality, I pulled the air filter off at the Auto parts store, and all I had was my cameraphone. The left filter assembly is off... Help..
