Re: Air Filter Help
TTT.
I have wondered the same. A guy I work with has a 14"x3" air filter that he said he bought at Advance Auto (CSK some places I think), for like $10. It was their normal brand. He just took a mesauring tape and started hunting. If anyone has any PN's though, let us know. |

Re: Air Filter Help
On a shelf in my garage I found a 14" open air cleaner with a WIX 42116 paper filter. Filter dimensions are:
OD: 13.0 ID: 11.25 height: 2.75 Ideally, it would have a 1/2" larger ID, because it's a snug fit in my "dropped" air cleaner base. Summit Racing has an inexpensive 14" paper filter here: http://store.summitracing.com/partde...115&rsview=sku

Re: Air Filter Help
I'm using the same air filter on my 72. I use a Purolator A60074 element in it and it fits great and costs less than $10. I change it after each hunting season. I get mine at Advance Auto Parts. I found mine by measuring filters at the parts houses until I found the best fit.
