there are all kinds of unit available for the CV carb.

the old screaming eagle was a stamped plate with a plastic velocity horn, the owner screwed into place, but it dd come with a K&N filter.

Ness also made units.

as long as you stay away from the 'hype-charger" you'll be fine

You need a filter to fit your chosen carb, not the injector. An S&S is another alternative.
