Just slipped over the carb opening and pointed straight back. Held in place with a hose clamp. Don"t know how well it will work with so much dust flying around a tractor. ??? [Reply]  [No Email]

Might be a better deal up here at 8k feet to use replaceable filter like paper or K& N I use the K&N on my 66 390 ford. [Reply]  [No Email]

There just isn't much dust and I don't drive allot. But it would be interesting. I think a problem with OB filter is handling a high flow engine. Though, I do seem to recall OB on old ford V8s.
