You can use a shorter filter, or even slightly smaller in diameter...... just alters the way it fits under the hood. (taller would probably run out of clearance.)

You will need a "S" bolt to mount that though. Did it come with one?

 

I read the DIY thread for it. The kit comes with the threaded bolt that I'll have to bend and I already picked out the VC breather. I'll probably just go with a Spectre 14x3 filter then since its like half the price of the K&N. I shouldn't have clearance issues with the 14x3 since I have a body lift I assume. Thanks guys.

 

I didn't have clearance issues without a body lift but, depending on how your throttle cables are run, you may need a riser.

I couldn't seat my 14x3 flush properly because the cables run directly in the path the 14x3 needs in the front.

 

Well, the air hat from my spectra kit stressed and broke causing leaks. Cheap plastic IMO. Just ordered the Volant kit.

 

So from reading through this, would switching from a K&N Drop in to a 14x3 be worth while?
Already have Hughes Airgap, 52mm TB and doing new exhaust next week, just not sure if I would need the extra flow

 

The K&N drop in is probably plenty.

I thinks the 14x3 is more for looks, kinda like a CAI, then anything else...
