Default which filter is this? (for vortech)





I cant seem to find a part number for this filter. If it slips completely through the hole then it seems like the perfect filter for us Vortech users, easier to clean and more flow.

I so want to derail this thread right now.


Check K&N's website and look for it by size and you too can "slip it in from the front" lol

I cant remember the OSD of the intake for the blower . But by the measurements chart on the K&N site look for one that looks just like it with the same ISD on the filter intake . Im thinking the intake on the blower has a 3.75 inch OSD

No need for it . Just let it dangle and let it vent

I see what your referring to, however my set up has the breather hose and the PCV teed together and connected to an ARC oil catch can (with the can ports welded up) and uses the vortech filter fitting (on the back of the filter) as a way of collecting oil vapors from the can ( a welded port) and into the intake...Bottom line I use that filter fitting on the back of the filter..
