Plus, when you reoil the filter after cleaning it it can get the oil all over your MAF and mess it up. I was extremely careful when cleaning and oiling my k&n and still had some get on my maf. When I had my car tuned at dez racing Don had to remove the maf screen due to the oil getting on it.

I noticed we were veering off as well (partially due to myself) and tried to get it back on track. Good change on the title as well.

And with a post like this, I have no idea what you have been doing for the last 800 posts...

I did a back to back comparrison with the K&N Filter and a Wixx paper filter..
My neighbor owns a dynapack system at his shop.. my car made 322.4rwhp with the paper air filter.. and 322.2rwhp with K&N granatelli air lid... back to back pulls.. I also did the NO air filter pull.. 324.6rwhp...
I still use the paper air filter to this day..

I bought an aftermarkt throttle body and on acceleration it gave me a nice hissing sound, and on idle along with the lid bellows and maf sounded pretty cool everybody thought somthing was wrong with my car it had a strong sucking sound lol. in all reality there prob was somthing wrong with my car who knows, I god rid of it and bought a 6spd anyways.

If that's the noise you're going for then I suggest adding one of those. And for the other guys saying a K&N doesn't pick up much. I've dynoed back to back with a paper filter and a Holley power shot (not a K&N but you get the point) along with descreening the MAF, I picked up 8 rwhp and 7 rwtq. I don't recommend messing with the MAF unless you can tune for the changes.

Did I miss something or is he looking for something for an LT1? Unless he plans on making changes to the intake, why not get a system developed for an LT1? But I've had a hard time following this trhead, so maybe I'm WAY off.
