I would say a clamp should be figured out, surely one from a manifold boot like maybe the 395 should work out. Not sure if the elbow adapter is going to be made or not, if so that's the three things needed to convert over this style of filtering system. The filter, clamp and adapter. The hardware to mount the adapter is the same on both systems.

Elbow, filter and collar.
I’m in for 3 sets.

Take my money @Gentleman

@Stump Shot
Any light destructive testing yet?
Pulling on the joints making sure it doesn’t unglue easily and such. Bending the filter element a bit making sure it doesn’t crack. Typical expections same as a husky filter.

Yes, I found where it was seamed together and it is glued so as I could not separate it. The pleats are molded in nicely just like the original.

Use purple power or la awesome on the old filter with a toothbrush it will look new

Look, yes, act like, no. Fines end up stuck inside and can't be gotten out. Will not breathe like a new filter. This is my finding having tried the same.

@mortalitool should be about ready with the elbow/ adapter.

The elbow i have reverse engineered into a cad file would need to be plastic injection molded. 3D printing these wont work due to the thin walls of the elbow.
Options would be to make the walls thicker, but to maintain the O.D. so it works with that prototype filter, i would need to decrease the I.D. and i dont want to give up any space on the I.D. So 3D printing these is out. :(

If @Gentleman would like to tackle the plastic injection idea I can work with him on that.

3d print the lower and press/glue in a metal sleeve for the air filter clamp section.
