One manufacturer is usually making them for all of the vendors. Be careful about waiting too long when vendors seem to no longer have an item. It may be a couple of years before the manufacturer decides to do another run. A few extra dollars to a vendor who has one in stock may look cheap compared to chasing used or out of stock for awhile.

I got mine from Mastertouch also. I liked the pan that the sides come off with 6 screws and also their stainless fuel log bolts up to it. Very clean and user friendly.....
My K&N is 9 inches by 2.5 or 2.75... They make both.

What size is your K&N filter? I would like to get a turkey pan, but figured that my filter was too large. Thanks.

A lengthy thread on my installation of the K&N Xtreme in my Turkey Pan. http://www.clubcobra.com/forums/all-...whats-new.html An additional note -- once you decrease the intake resistance you must re-calibrate your secondaries to open properly with a softer spring. I have another thread on that, though. |

The real benefit of the TP is that it isolates the carb from a lot of the engine heat. That means the engine will run more consistently, the fuel will percolate less, and your engine will run cooler. Without the TP, my car runs almost 10 degrees warmer around town. |

Turkey Pan
Thanks Pat.
I guess I would have on find one for duel quads since that is my setup. I always have a fuel smell in the garage after shutting down. I may need a spacer plate between the intakes and carbs.

Could you not modify the pan with small holes and rubber plugs to give access to the idle mixture screws OR get the type that can be twisted with your fingers? There aren't a lot of things that need to be accessed? It would appear that the use of one really restricts the size of air filter, especially with a 427+ Inch FE. Seems like your'e having to chase your tail.

This is a K&N filter sold by Nick A. Allows plenty of air for a SB.
