![]() Looking at air filters I'm wondering how can these mushroom style housings possibly get good air flow? ![]() compared with this style? ![]() What do you use and what do you think about it?

The mushroom is deceiving. It's larger than the filter/base and open underneath...

I like the looks of the long ovals like Ford used in the early 60's. Plenty of filter area.

No, for tri power 2 bbls. Used on FE engines, 390, 406, and 427's. Google Ford tri power and you should find some pic. I would link some for you but don't know how to from my phone.

Yeah, I see. Didn't realize you wer running a six pack. There might be some of the oval style narrow enough to fit side by side.
What about a MoPar style six pack? Not as good looking IMHO, but might work. They make repops of them now I think. Might be able to use the filter from one and build your own housing. |

I'll have plenty of time this winter to figure it out. I got 1/2 my Summer Honey Do list left on home repair/remodeled punch list. I don't think I'll be able to get started on rebuilding the carbs until winter. I was real happy to find the whole set-up for the 394. I've been looking for about a year now. |
