Thanks Dylan. I've always been a fan of the old style snorkel air cleaners.

Save your engine! dont run the KandN. the reason they "flow" so well is because the holes are huge and they let tons of dirt in too!

ryanroo · 03-22-2013, 10:18 PM

in a sense. they flow well, but the "holes" in the filter that air (and dirt) flow through to get to the engine are huge and that is why. they dont filter worth a tinkers damn. oddly enough, K&N makes reall good oil filters and crap air filters. Fram makes crap oil filters and thier air filters are supposed to be great. i generally choose to run a high quality paper filter from napa

shawno72 · 03-22-2013, 11:27 PM

Ok Ryan thanks for the input. I am running a paper filter for now at least

HotRod C/10 · 03-22-2013, 11:52 PM

run an S&B filter Shawn.....they filter so much better than K&N and have some serious flow. Most diesel guys run this brand.

Napa would be a WIX brand filter......good stuff!

shawno72 · 03-23-2013, 12:00 AM

I'm thinkin that the microguard is the wix off brand?

HotRod C/10 · 03-23-2013, 12:14 AM

usually the NAPA gold products...the oil filters are wix if buying NAPA Gold's

You know what I feel like a total dummy, I looked over your truck and did not even think to scope your wheel. I do want to restore it so let me know when the guy you know wants to do it.......
