SU air filters

[Arne]

I think I have a spare pair of cover bolts as well, if Mark doesn't.

On the yellow car I replaced the filter element with a paper one, I think it was a Casite (sp?). It has the same issue as the K&N that beandip uses, the cover doesn't fit all the way down. Not a huge issue, as Gary notes the filter is still filtering, so nothing gets to the carbs. Seems to be an increase in intake roar however, much like inverting the cover on the air cleaner on an old Chevy V8 did. I remember that the element I got was listed as fitting '70-74 all, whereas the OE elements were different for '70-72 and 73-74. I suspect that perhaps the difference is that the '73-74 filter is a touch thicker, and that some filter manufacturers figure the thicker one is close enough to cover them all.

Astrohog, I have a K & N filter used that fits the OEM box.

I think I may have a set of the cover bolts I'd be willing to sell as well. PM or email if you interested. Thanks.

I do not have an extra set of cover bolts. Sorry....
