REFLECTOR: Pat Shea's Air filter

[Keith Hallsten]

Pat Shea,

I see in that same set of photos that you have an air filter mounted low on
the firewall.  I'm looking for something similar.  Is that some sort of
reproducible product or a custom one-off?

Alex,

I put some pics in TVBF of how I did it using a slip
joint with a few stiffeners to prevent bulging under
pressure. It has worked great so far - 60 hours:
