I have no clue, but that is WAAAAAAAAAAAAY to rich for my blood.
At one time, someone had one of those (exactly identical) with a red face, which I have never seen anywhere. I would have tried to buy it but never heard from the guy. I would have been perfect for the 56.

Yes, this stuff is becoming unbelievably expensive. Indeed, the Julio blue A56C air filter elements are now going for $5,000---- when you can find them. It really is getting to a point where many of these prices are simply beyond reach.

Fortuinately, on Airbox cars, the color of the air filter element can't be seen. Right Bill?
Or does NCRS judging require the cover to be unscrewed?

Hi Tom,

I honestly don't know if it is required, but we have always opened the airbox and shown the A56C filter element for both NCRS and Bloomington Gold judging. While 4007 actually had its original filter in place when we got the car, it was so badly deteriorated that I invested in a NOS.

By the way Bill, the cover (or lid) that is on your air filter element, is the the same cover that was used on the regular FI air cleaners that attached directly to the air meter?

I have a genuine FI air cleaner (it's been re-chromed), but I use an aftermarket chrome air cleaner lid inside my airbox.
