Default Where can I get a new K&N filter/cheap

I'm wanting to buy another filter as the one I have now is far from red in color & It's really dirty. I'm not sure I can clean it well enough with that oil stuff K&N sells. Anyone know where the best buy is? Thanks, Fred

I checked e-bay & after looking at 5 different pages I didn't see one for a LS1. I just called Summit & they want $55 plus a $8 handling fee. $63 seems a little high to me. Anyone know where I can buy one cheaper, Thanks Fred

The paper filters are a pretty good option. They flow just as well.They are only a few bucks

Go with a fram paper filter. K&N's are a waste of money. my .02. I got one for free though.

Gasket? What does a gasket have to do with a K&N filter. Atleast my airbox doesn't have a gasket...
