thanks for the K&N advice.
i forgot to mention, even though the carbs and engine are stock...
I actually would perfer not to use the original air filter housing.
so i will take a look at the big three and see what i need.

i guess i need to get special oil for the filters as well.
and how often do they need replacing? or are they cleanable like my
current foam/sponge setup?

thanks!

james
