Re: SS airfilter

Paper filters are always a good choice too.

Re: SS airfilter

Any chance the SS filter is the same as the WS6 filter? IIRC the WS6 airbox (96/97) uses the same filter as a 1995 Corvette. That filter is:

17-3/8" x 10-5/8"

K&N # 33-2035

Measure your SS filter to see if it is the same.

Re: SS airfilter

the ws-6 air filter is bigger than the SS filter

im not sure what my filter measures right now but ill get it

i read here that some ppl use a jeep filter K&N 33-2018
measures:13.375 x 6.563

it works but some said its not good to use it if its nto for our application, it may not seal correctly etc...

EDIT:
as for holley , i searched and found
http://www.holley.com/221-5.asp
L–13.5" x W–6.625" x H–1.000

measures pretty close

id ratehr have teh red K&N filter than holleys blue
i wonder y K&N never made one

Re: SS airfilter

hmmm don't know what i did ^^^^

i dont think K&N makes one. Fram makes one that fits, it was and AirHog filter, the same exact thing as a K&N only orange in color. my local auto store had one in stock.
PN ppa3901 for ram air.

search under airhog for your car w/ ramair. its in there.

also they have the 3.8 v6 listed as a HighOutput motor. i thought it was funny.
