The K&Ns are nice, we used um on the dirt track stock cars, Actually had two, one to use while the other was drying, so always had one ready to go

RE: Washing air cleaner element?
When I went from stock to increased flow, yes, I did had to re-jet. The stock one is not washable according to my manual, the K&N (Screamin' Eagle) is. Just not sure on the procedure and product used to wash it... anyone???
Regards.

If you have a local petroleum jobber, you can get a gallon of varsol. It's a petroleum product that cleans the filter better than soap and water and doesn't require the drying time. Just let it air dry for a hour, re-oil it and you are good to go.
