[Healeys] breather for K&N air filter

[Chris Masucci]

Bob,

Perhaps I could have been more clear.  Only the radius of an air horn has
been cast into the housing.  It doesn't actually stick out into clean air
area within the filter at all.

Basically the radius is there to smooth airflow into the carb, but that's
really all it is.

Cheers,
Chris

Al,

K&N Part Number is 59-9320.  I had bought a couple (from Moss?) some time
ago thinking I would back date the 80 MGB to twin SU carbs.  Bought the
third from K&N via ebay for $57.  These have a stamped steel housings.  K&N
lists this filter for the HIF4 carb and don't have any listings for the HS4.
If anyone near Riverside, CA has these fitted to a tri-carb, it might be
nice to stop by K&N and show them.  I'll probably send them an email/photo.

To Chris' email: I did check with APT about fitting air horns, but they
didn't think there was enough room with the conical filter to be effective.
I remember someone telling me about the Australian aluminum housings at the
car show at Conclave last year.  Will have to see if I can remember who told
me.

To those that have send me suggestions for the breather, thanks.  Will let
the list know what I end up with.

Cheers,

Bob
