Just had to show off my new baby. Still a long way from getting it in the car, but it is a start :)

:craz :lol :craz It is an Accel foam filter in a Ford Racing cleaner top and bottom. Came with the car.
 
Here is the scoop on the engine as it sets today

1970 – 302 w/stock crank and rods, 40 over with dished pistons. Mild Comp Cam with hydraulic lifters and roller rockers. Stock heads that have been porter and polished, Screw in studs and oversized valves. Summit Stage 1 intake and Holley 4160 600cfm w/vacuum secondary and elect choke, supporting an Accel foam filter caped with chrome Ford Racing cleaner. Stock distributer w/Igniter guts and performance cap and rotor. Initially stock exhaust manifolds will feed into duals with glasspacks. I’m hoping the stock standard 3 speed lasts till I have the money for a T5.

That is crazy funny... I guess.
I have used foam filters for a pre-stage set up in my son's dirt cars and race karts, but never looked into running straight foam for street applications...Interesting... I run a 14" K&N and noticed a difference at the 1/4 mile over the regular Fram...I think I might try one of these Accels for the track.

Thanks,
Dave.
 
Dave,
My plan is to run a K&N. The Accell was in the trunk of the car when I got it. I've been thinking about using the Foam in front of the K&N during our windy season. We get about two months of 30 to 50mph winds comming off the desert ALL DUST.
