K&N Cone Filter

I am picking up an intake from a member here and im gonna need to replace the cone filter with a K&N one, but Im not sure which one I need, theres like 100 different sizes and idk which one to get. All I know is that it has to be a 3" inlet, and I searched and didnt find an answer...Maybe I didnt search hard enough

So I just need the part number for a K&N cone Filter for a C.A.I

Thnx

I actually think im gonna go with the AEM Dryflow. You dont have to oil it, just rinse it with water and let it dry. And if your K&N isnt filtering well, maybe you arent oiling it enough? The oil is gonna create a type of barrier to prevent dirt and debris from going through the filter. So maybe you should try to oil it a little more and see how that works before you get the Amsoil one

The "red" doesnt wrap around the piping from the icebox

The "green" can't fit because there is a plastic piece from the icebox that is in the way

Im not sure if they make sense... i maybe able to take a picture to show u

I am thinking about this also...wonder, if aside from not having to oil it, there are any other benefits

You are doing nothing wrong...the fit is pretty tight. Probably because the rubber piece is cold and dry. Just fiddle with it and it will fit.
