In Reply to: Air filter conversion - oil to dry? posted by Joe Gustafson on Monday, June 09, 2008 at 10:59:33 :
I changed my oilbath to a dry paper type because when off the road the oil would slosh around and end up on the firewall and exhaust,etc. All I did was go down to the local auto parts store and get one of thier generic 14"(?) chrome air cleaner setups. The problem is the air horn is an odd size and I was not able to buy an off the shelf adapter to make it fit (doesn't really matter because I put a store bought adapter on my v8 and they are CHEESY!!! will make my own later) so I turned one out of some industrial plastic on the lathe. I'm not sure what a machine shop would charge to do this, but the good thing is no modification to the air horn was necessary, so you could just bolt the original on if you wanted or needed to, and almost every parts store in the nation carries the filter and or housing if any of it needed replaced.
