Fram Air Hog???
Anyone had any experiences with these as a drop-in filter? The price is similar to K&N. I haven't used anything but K&N on my other cars and have been happy however I'm always interested in new products and knowing if they are worth it. TIA

Did the Air Hog need any type of foam seal to get it to the right dimension? The K&N is a common filter with the Savana/Express (I think) and required a foam seal to get the right fit. I just don't like that kind of stuff.

As far as fit and finish. Fits very well. Very solid design. Not flimsy. They are an improvement over the paper filters.
Chris. Where can I find this zip tie mod. I haven't had much luck finding the info?
