flat air filters for 5.9 ?

Postby jethro » Sat Apr 23, 2016 9:39 pm

I am trying to finish up the fummins......
Got a BHAF air filter early on- but maybe too tight on the passenger fender well to fit it---- without
cutting up inner fender well---- 9may have to do that-)

Has anyone tried something like the largest size of flat type disposable paper filter ?????
Would be easy enough to build an aluminum box and lid for it........
just don't know if a large flat filter would flow enough and not have resistance.......

Any experience ???????

ended up hacking out a saddle shaped hole in inner fender well to use the BHAF- the flat one was all most as expensive
and only half (or less) surface area......
