hey guys...

i have web 44's with 3" stacks and 3/5" air cleaners. to fit the rainshields on the carbs i had to use .75" aluminum spacers on the threaded rod instead of spacing it..id like to run taller air filters. do they make a 4" or a 4.5"? i made longer studs.....so height isnt an issue. is ther any magic to velocity stack height vs aircleaner height?

please advise

I'll measure mine for you, I put new K@N's on last summer, which are as tall as I could fit and still get them on and off reasonably well. I noticed an immediate improvement in idle and low speed tractibility (likely because the old filters were really clogged and one was melted from a fuel fire-which the PO didn't know anything about..) I think I got them from summit, but I'll go look... I dont think that the filter will be a factor in the velocity stacks performance, afterall you set the carbs up with filters off, and so long as the filters arent way to small or really dirty and clogged they shouldnt be much of a factor...which is why I also dont really believe the KnN performance gain claims...

what do you all think?
