fit?

Q- Why is it important that your filters don't use rubber tops like
all the others?
A- Rubber expands, contracts, and deteriorates over time and will not provide
a lifetime of use.
Q- What is the difference between stainless steel and aluminum?
A- Aluminum conducts heat very rapidly while stainless steel remains more thermally
stable and becomes much more reflective after polishiong.
Q- Will stainless steel tubing conduct heat from the engine bay and
allow intake air to get hot?
A- No, When the engine is running, cooler air is moving much too rapidly through
the tubing to ever have the time to warm up from any surrounding heat
.
