Re: Cleaning the intake
Well, in "SBC Marine Performance", K&N arrestors and stacks are one of the only products Dennis Moore recommends by name and brand...<br /><br />"The high performance filters are literally the only filter used by professional race teams though out the world....The surface area of the K&N filter is many times that of a typical flame arrestor, allowing for an extremely free-flowing design. This pleated design also acts to straighten and channel the airflow passing through it. This is very important on a boat with an open engine compartment... along with straightening and channeling effect of the filter, the base of the the K&N arrestor is radiused to gently turn the air into the carb... because a flame arrestor can never be too large, the K&N flame arrestor should be installed with a K&N filer element chosen that is the tallest that will fit in the engine compartment..."<br /><br /><br />Funny thing is, I think they are usually less expensive than a stock flame arrestor.
