Default K&N Help

I have a 90 that I want to install the short tapered K&N that mounts right on the Throttle body but I can't find the part number..anyone have it ?
Any luck with these filters? I have the panel right now but I pulled my entire box off the other night and the car woke up big time.I want this all the time so I thought I'd try one.

Anyone have one for sale ?

Thanks
Jason

Default Part number

Use your search engine and search K & N. There web site will give you the part number. Also there is a telephone number to call to answer any questions you may have.

Dont do it, its been shown that the hot air you will pick up behind the radiator will cost you more power than the increased flow will make. Get yourself the stock replacement K&N, and cut the lid as shown in many, many previous posts here.

Well I found it ..Its a RC-5000 K&N
Jegs and summit want 59.00 for it local Advance can get it for 32

My car is a 90, 90&91s were Speed density cars ...No MAF
Also this is more of a temporary thing,I'm installing my 383 and I'm doing some things in the front as far as fans and radiator go so I just wanted something to protect the TB and engine while I'm tuning and tinkering.

Thanks for all the help
Jason
