[Tigers] K&N Air Filters, P/N's

[Steve Laifman]

Mark,

I've had both the original paper filter, and the K&N.

 The stock paper filter is un-obtanium, and comes folded in a 
rectangular c/s small box.  It needs to be stretched, and attached to 
the other end with the sticky surface provided.  Replacement oval paper 
filters are  available.

I am using the K&N replacement, which is cleanable, and re-oil able with 
the K&N oil. The Part Number is *E-2859,* and the "E-3710*" *seems 
identical. Originally from Sunbeam Specialties, who no longer stocks 
this part as K&N decided their sales volume wasn't large enough. It is 
oval, 1 1/2 inches thick, and perfectly fits the original air filter.

These are not listed by application as the cars are too old, and limited 
quantities to list them.  However, they still work well. They are 
searchable by part number.


I recommend this as it is a good filter, and MUST be cleaned and 
re-oiled occasionally (going on 20K miles and still looks good)

Autozone, Pep Boys, and many other dealers are on the K&N website:

but stocking needs a call to your dealer.  The List Price is  about $59.
