What type of filters are used for a serious buggy ?
I will be using twin Kadrons, and I thought instead of using K&N or Unifilters on each, I would mount a high paper element/canister style of filter and duct both carbies to it.
What do you all think ??? is there a good universal aftermarket one ? should I run two on either side of the buggies body work, or one large one from a Landcruiser etc ???
K&N make a direct replacement for the kadron paper element. I used a pair when I ran twin kadrons on a 1776. They use the standard kadron top and bottom metal pieces.
As brad said, the manx club mag's had a detailed article that covered air filters.
I run a single K&N for each carbie. Everything is split and isoloated. I actually have 3 as I run another one for my breather box. I use 3" stainless tube and 3" rubber / stainless flex for the lines. I have had no probs at all with the rain although I have designed a hat for it never needed it as yet.
I'm running a single K&N up high in the center. Seems to attract very little dust. When I am on the beach I wrap it in 5mm foam oiled with filter oil, to act as a pre filter to the K&N element.
