short air filter?

Does anyone know where I can order those short stubby air filters with 4" opening for low clearance applications? They are about half the length of everything I can find.

Here's a link for various sizes for K&N. You can use this to size up for your application. Your local parts store can order them aswell if needed.

I got the HKS SMF and it works perfectly for my application. I'm trying to think of ways to route it so isn't resting on the radiator hose though.

I stayed away from the HKS foam filter, I've heard lots of bad things about greddy/hks foam filters over the years. I use K&N in all applications.

For the sake of everyone's turbo, don't use the GReddy air filters. I had one on my T88 and one of the little plastic bars on the inside broke off and ruined my compressor. It mangled the **** out of it. I ended up having to rebuild the turbo with a new compressor wheel.

I went with the K&N RU-2520. Fits perfectly and it a much better design.
