This reminds me of a guy in my squadron back in Pensacola. He has a Triumph TR250, nearly perfect, with the kind of body and finish you almost NEVER see on an old car, painted a gorgeous periwinkle

Doug, I don't know how the filters are actually tested, either, but I would suspect that one could feed air through the filter at a fixed pressure and measure total cubic feet per minute flow. You c

What is it with people? Back in my high school days, there was a local kid that did the same thing with a Porsche 911! I think it was a Chevy Nova chassis instead of an AMC Eagle, so his wasn't 4WD,
