EFI Air Filters

Postby TOOLMAN » Thu Mar 23, 2017 8:41 am

I'm trying to find an alternative to ordering my air filter through BC Broncos. Searching a little this morning and found this one:https://www.aemintakes.com/search/product.aspx?Prod=21-202BF

Any opinions? I wanted something maybe a little shorter and one that had a number that I could cross reference to something! i obviously wanted to stay away from the oily filters.

Iam just using a generic cone filter but it has a opening at the end and sides. Like this one. https://www.ebay.com/itm/331822698357

After reading a ton I didn't see much of a difference between the expensive ones or cheaper ones. I use a heavier more dense mesh one on the 69 due to it having open fender wells and being a more traditional circle up top air filter. I clean it a few times a year.

I've used AEM dry-flow filters in the past and I recommend them. I like that they are cleanable and do not require the proper dosage of oil to filter the air. I think what you linked to would be just fine!

I've been looking for one too. I'm probably going with something like this. Just wish it didn't have green foam.

I wouldn't run foam. They degrade over time and get sucked into the engine. The AEM dry flow is a great choice.
