..its about that time for me to replace my intake filter or have it washed.. would any other filter fit?

 

All foam type filters (Comptech) and cotton/gauze type filters (K&N) are cleanable and re-usable. Get the Comptech cleaning kit and following the instructions.

 

You can also replace it with an AFE cloth filter (24-55505)...like a K&N...

 

I have the AFE 7" filter and it fits fine, should be 24-55507

 

The difference between foam and gauze is minimal.

- Foam filters better but needs to be clean often.

- Gauze flows better but the filtration is not as good as foam.

Both are better than paper filters, so no matter what you pick you are ahead.

 

so what's the correct size...24-55507 or 24-55505? (7"/5") and who has it in stock?

thanks!

 

No one, I had to special order mine took 2 months http://www.superdutyheadquarters.com/contact.htm
give them the part #

Both will fit, but some say the 7" is to big, but mine fit fine.

 

Instruction that I followed last weekend.

what about an AEM filter? ..will it work? ..AEM is two minutes away from my house

 

AEM uses K&N type filters (if not actually K&N filters).
