Uhhh, remember I was just recently voted "most helpful member." An achievement you can only aspire to.  |

The search function does not reveal such an election. Another fiction from the master.

Well, turn out at the polls was admittedly low, but I came in first place nonetheless.  I know kevins2 cast his ballot and I think he put me over the top. I think Computerworks was a staunch supporter as well....  |

OK, so I was expressing some appreciation for his help, but just to keep it real, I said Patrick is ONE of the most helpful contributors (re-read my post). I think he took a little creative license with my words to get to THE most helpful. I'm sure some of you that know him better can explain why he would do such a thing... |

Kevin ... sorry , I`ve been out of town for the past 3 days . I wasn`t running an oval cleaner . I have a 14" dia. unit with a 3" tall element ( K&N ) on a drop base I got from Robert Pond . Leaves me with about 1/16" clearance on the passenger side , but since the motor torques that way , it isn`t a problem . I can`t run that filter if I run a spacer , so I took the filter off while running tests to see how the engine responds to the 4 hole unit . So far ... I really like the 4 hole tapered unit . Now I need to come up with a filter that will fit under the hood . I may just run it without a filter at the track and go ahead and let it be restricted by using the smaller 9" unit with the extreme top .... or try an oval unit .
The reason I had ERA cut away some of the support was that I was considering running two 4`s , but ended up with a single unit ( AED for the street and Pro Systems for the track ) .

Thanks Bob, got it. I'll check with ERA about trimming the hood to keep my options open.
