Default RE: Witch air filter

I clicked on here expecting to see an air filter, with a little hat, and a big nose, with wart on it... "Which" is the word you are looking for....

Now, on to your question. You are going to want a freer breathing air filter. Arlen Ness Big Sucker is good, and you can buy it with a chrome back plate (in case you ever want to run an open element). The SE air cleaner is OK, but the filter is not able to be cleaned (like the AN big sucker) or the K& N. I didn't know the difference when I got mine. I got the SE air cleaner, and it is fine, but you will have to buy filters for it... What I did was to buy just the K & N filter for the assembly... so, I have the SE backing plate/housing, and a K & N filter... it would be cheaper, and just as good, to buy a AN Big Sucker...

K&N filter is the best, S/E filters are just junk they don't last long at all.
