[Spridgets] Bugeye/Frogeye Club..... Help - Air Filter for dual carbs.

[Robert E. Shlafer]

These might still be available in "plain" (no script).

APT may not have them, but they should be able to point the way??

Or mayhap....Ed at justbrits?

o?=
Group,
o?=
I have been looking at Air Filters for dual SU 1.25 carburetors.
o?=
There is the pan cake style which you need two.
When change elements you also need two.
I have been running this style on my motor.
The ones i have are throw away units.
Meaning you can not remove parts to clean the filter element
They have paper elements - i used a brush & vacuum to clean in the past.
At this point really need to be replaced.
o?=
K&N has a 56-1630 - Same style better quality -
You can clean the unit or replace the filter element.
The original cost for the units are $58 each.
To replace both elements in the futureo?=is $52
o?=
Io?=started poking around and found oneo?=that does botho?=carburetors at the
same time.
There appears to be more breathing room and air flow to both carburetors.
Ito?=looks like it iso?=very easy to clean or replace the element.
My problem is:o?=They have Midget cast into the cover. I drive a Morris
Minor.
I wrote to the shop in the UK. There replyo?=was - only one in that style.
o?=
Any one know of this style air cleaner that has a plain cover with no logo.
o?=
Thanks for your help -
o?=
Vigil
