@whitey45 as I’m sure you already know this is how they get their claimed horsepower gains. There’s a lab test somewhere (I saw several years ago) that compared a K&N filter vs a stock paper filter vs another aftermarket filter. Both the K&N and AF filter let a significant amount of particulate thru where the paper stock filter stopped more of the particulates.Fwiw, k&n filters let alot of dirt in, especially if not well oiled.
How does the original oil bath filter work? Does anyone have any experience with them? I had one in my Unimog 404.I’d be replacing a paper element every couple of weeks during the summer. I use Spectre’s on the SBC.
Mostly in. Two of sixteen screws still need to be installed (somehow) - the two upper and center ones next to the middle gasket.

I was wondering if the original screw holes would line up with the new gasket’s holes. Just how ‘instrumented‘ were these holes drilled originally at the factory install and therefore how much variance would exist between rigs? Twelve of the holes were close enough to each other, just a bit of finagling the gasket and screw to get the screws in the original holes. The lower holes near the inside corner needed to be redrilled (or could use self tapping screws) as the holes were 1/2” off, and I could get my close quarters drill in there to make new holes. As mentioned above, the upper centered holes on each side are not aligned, not sure how far off as it’s difficult to get hands and/or tools in there, and I can’t use any of my drill options. So those screws and holes are unused right now. I installed everything with glass in place. Maybe with glass out and just the gasket installed it would have been easier to install the screws but I’m not sure I’d have gotten the glass back in, esp. the fixed run.
Glass size is critical for fit and slidability of the slider pane. I used templates from @sofj45 and the laminated panes seem to fit pretty well. Stiff sliding right now, so I’ve fluid film’d the runs, we‘ll see how things go as time goes by. Rather than ground in finger grooves, I’ll put these on when they show up. Amazon product ASIN B00E4BHDJM. Hopefully they work.
