[Alpines] [Tigers] KanN TALL

[drmayf]

This thread on K&N has got me to thinking..has anyone used a flow bench 
to test the stock air cleaner and  filter? I wonder how it actually 
flows? Iffn I was making a new one, I would make it such that the side 
wings on the air filter, top and botom, were also of filter materials. 
More air flow in the same space..

Forgive me for highjacking the filter story for a moment...

>The next taller K and N is two inches versus the stock height of 1-1/2. It works well, but look out for clearance to hood. Summit Racing has it under part number KNN-E-3710. It is listed as 13-1/2 inch diameter "round" but it is plenty flexible and will take on the oval shape permanently after installed in the stock air cleaner.

>>Theo posted the number for a KanN filter which is the same diameter but thicker than the orginal most of us are running. I thought I saved that email but cant locate it. If anyone else saved it or if Theo doesnt mind, please repost that KanN part number. I promised a chap at SUNI who doesnt have email I would send it to him. He also repairs/recast the steering wheel hub if yours is cracked so bad you want it fixed.He sold home made steering wheels made of different types wood. He repaired a old hub and after recasting the cracked part he added new wood- most likely using Alpine wheels from which he removed the plastic from around the steel circle under the orginal plastic(for lack of the correct name of THAT material). He did excellent work, so Im passing this on to the Alpine list as well in case someone needs his service.
