Title: velocity stags
Post by: vintagewagenwerks on August 11, 2011, 18:48:54 pm
Is someone use velocity stags with out aircleaners in normal streetuse? I explained about doing this but i think it woll not good for the engine and carburators getting in all the dust .Can someone share his experience with this.

I haven't run air cleaners for years now and not had any issues but i think it's safer in a bus than a bug due to the way the air cirulates down the rear vents, the bigger bits end up sat in my battery trays rather than getting anywhere near the intake.

Have you taken the engine apart and had a close look on your cylinder walls? If not, then I can understand why you do not use filters.

Why not use the foam type filter? You can take them off easily at a meeting to show those stacks :)
