Yes you could, but it's not ideal and will require a lot of fab work.
The Donaldson synthetic weave filter is one of the very best filters on the market. You would need to check the dimensions but it may be possible to mount it in a similar way to the k&n FPIK (or whatever it's called.)
Volant also make a system that mounts similar. But the Donaldson filter it the key and is far superior to those used by k&n or Volant.

The Amsoil EaA 83 is a stock sized panel filter (drop in) that I believe is the same material/construction as the Donaldson Blackwing deal. I could be wrong, but, they (Amsoil) do pay a fee to Donaldson for this. Does the Vette Blackwing filter use oil (a la K&N, Powershot, etc.) or is it dry, like the Amsoil??

Synthetic weave filters are used in aviation and heavy plant machinery.

No it doesn't require any oil. And it filters almost as well as paper, which is still the best substance for filtering. Cotton weave like k&n is pretty crap at filtering and also clogs very quickly.

Yes, it is cleaned with a shop vac, or low pressure compressed air line.

EaA filters should be cleaned every year or 25,000 miles, whichever comes first. Carefully remove the filter from the housing. Clean the housing with a shop towel, being careful not to knock contaminants into the air inlet. Filters can be cleaned by carefully vacuuming the filter media on the dirty side, or by holding the filter with one hand and carefully blowing the filter media at a 45 degree angle on the clean side using low-pressure shop air (15-20 lbs. psi).
Service Life
AMSOIL Ea Air Filters are guaranteed for four years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. The guarantee applies only if the filter has been serviced according to AMSOIL recommendations. In off-road, frequently dusty or other severe duty applications, clean and change more often as determined by operating conditions or as indicated by restriction gauge.
AMSOIL Warranty
AMSOIL warrants that its filtration products are fit for use according to AMSOIL’s recommendations and warrants its products to be free of defective materials, design and workmanship.
Hope this helps.
