I have seen others use this arrangement. You get just slightly less power because you are using a litle bit warmer air and it is not really warm air. You may have just a little bit more trouble keeping the engine cool that way also because you are getting ram air blowing into the bottom half of the cowl which decreases the air flowing over the cylinders from the top of your baffels. You may have to compensate a little by enlarging the air outlets in the back of the cowl or inlarging the inlets on the front of the cowl on the top side of the baffels, or it may just not be a problem.

Put again another way, judging from your two reponses, I do NOT need to have cold air rushing in thru cowl opening DIRECTLY into the carb via a filter/screen,.....right?Mycowl opening is screened and just 2-3 inches beyond that is the clamp on filter. It does introduce some inside cowl air into the system, and that isn't so bad is it?? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Serge VIDAL" <serge.vi...@sagem.com> To: "KRnet" <kr...@mylist.net> Sent: Wednesday, November 17, 2004 6:09 AM Subject: Réf. : KR> Air filter > I have a doughnut-shaped car air filter, clamped to the carb mouth > (squeezed between two round aluminium plates). > > Serge Vidal > Paris, France > > > > > > > "patrusso" <patru...@sover.net> > > Envoyé par : krnet-bounces+serge.vidal=sagem....@mylist.net > 2004-11-16 14:03 > Veuillez répondre à KRnet > Remis le : 2004-11-16 14:08 > > > Pour : "KRnet" <kr...@mylist.net> > cc : (ccc : Serge VIDAL/DNSA/SAGEM) > Objet : KR> Air filter > > > > What method are you people using to filter air to Zenith carb?
