air filter too short for velocity stacks?
i got a new K&N filter for my sidedraft carburater. its shorter than the old beat up one i had. between the outer plate, and the end of the velocity stacks. there is only about 1.5 to 2 inches of room after the end of the velocity stacks. is that enough?

do this calculation:
1) measure the diameter of the intake throat
2) Take it's area = 3.14159*((diameter/2)^2)
3) Take the area of flow above the throat = (3.14159*diameter)*2"
4) Make sure all of your units are correct.
5) If (3) is larger than (2) you're OK, If it's close or less, you should use a taller filter.
