I was always told you had to have a stock (oem) base. I know one racer was told he could not run the K&N top filter also.

That seems stupid when you're allowed to run without an air cleaner.

You are right. That is silly. I have a single layer K&N filter that I run on my car and it slows it down a little. But it makes me smile when I am driving through the dusty pits in Div 4.

One of the East coast racers on this forum has pics of his engine with a air cleaner base that clearly is not oem, It's a 2 barrel combo so it's pretty easy to spot. He seems to be allowed to use it so maybe the old rule is no longer being enforced?. I believe GTX John was harassed for having a reproduction Mopar unit on his Demon at one time though.
