Seems this subject keeps coming up about K&N.
Both David Sosna, and I, have replied to Duke in mid June, 2009. (attached).
These filters are the correct oval in the box, the height allows a F4B
intake with 4 bbl Holley to fit fine beneath the hood. Even without a
LAT scoop. Taller filters will be difficult, or impossible, to clear
hood interference.
They are sturdily made, and can be cleaned and K&N oiled so they can
last nearly forever.
