More Gano Guano

     What would happen if you took a Gano filter and modified it a bit?  
     Cut away most of the external cylinder, leaving just the conical 
     screen and the part of the cylinder that holds it.  I'll bet you could 
     push the resulting assembly into the radiator end of the hose, the 
     cone sticking out, then push the hose on normally.  No blowout 
     worries, stock appearance, still easy to check.  
     
     Opinions?
