GJM85 Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 (edited) I have a Redline 9inch air cleaner on my 32/36 DGV The round chrome ones. The base plate has started cracking which is apparently a common occurence with these filters. I prefer the look of these over others though i'm looking at a new filter, either a Ramflo or one of those square ones with either 2 inch or 2-1/2 inch cotton guaze washable type filter. Just after some insight as to which air cleaner, if any is better or if you know of any other option out there.

bruce Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 I had a cheap ($20-$30) round chrome filter for a 32/36 Weber from auto1 and the base plate cracked as well from vibration. K&N filters are meant to good: http://www.dellorto.co.uk/merchandise/products_details.asp?PartNo=56-1040&CategoryID=16&PartsectionID=70 http://www.dellorto.co.uk/merchandise/products_details.asp?PartNo=56-9075&CategoryID=16&PartsectionID=70 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snot35 Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Most tests that I've seen seem to back K&N as filters that keep a high level for performance for a long time. If it was going to keep the setup for a while I reckon I'd go for K&N Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springersrolla Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Ramflos are good, sound good and work well, should easily find one for a weber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GJM85 Posted October 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 I've bought a square redline air cleaner from the egay as it comes with the gasket and pcv fittings. $62. Has a paper filter unfortunately. When it needs replacing i'll try and get a cotton k&n type filter for it. The k&n types I saw on ebay are 68mm in height, where others are only 55mm and I have only 65mm between the top of the carb and my strut brace. Thus my decision was made for me.
