[DeTomaso] Best stroker kit for a Cleveland

[Joseph F. Byrd, Jr.]

Is that 100 sq ins be filter surface area?  And for a round filter do they
consider surface area (3.1 X d X h = area)
3.1 X 14 X 5 = >200

That is because an oiled K&N filter element has way less air flow than a
paper filter element.
