Ken, Check also with Greg Long, I believe he has / makes an adapter and has the K&N filter info. George Teebay also might be able to help you with this. He had one on his S80 cars.

Peter, Thanks for trying, the dual valve 6 in my Series 36 has a completely different air intake setup than the Series 80/81 even though it is the same era. It has two air intakes, one with a cylindrical screen, the other comes through a passage that passes through the block from the right side below the exhaust manifold to the carb on the left side of the block. I think I am going to go through the K&N catalog and see if there is anything that will fit the opening in the block and possibly make an adapter. There are several simple solutions for the cylindrical screen, it is the other one that I am trying to figure out. It sounds like Ken could use your photos and information.

As a footnote: I am trying to gather information on modern air filter solutions for P-As to put together an article for a future PASB. If anyone has any solutions, please e-mail me any information and photos you might have. [email protected]

Thanks, Dave
