Has anyone used Speedways washable air filters?

I see Speedway has their washable 3 7/8" X 2" air filters for $7.99. The same filter from K&N cost around $30 discounted. If the Speedway filter is any good that's a huge savings.

 

Probably the same thing,,this is the information listed about the filter. HRP

3-7/8 Inch Washable Air Filters


Our washable replacement filters outlast typical paper
media filters because they can be washed and reused.

Simply wash the filter using K&N Filter Cleaner and then

re-oil it with K&N Air Filter Oil.

 

The only problem that I see with the product is that it is a cheap Chinese knock-off. In my estimation buyer beware of China imports parts

 

I agree to an extent, but we use Chinese products every day. I just hate to spend 4 times the amount. I'm hoping someone has actually tried these and can give real feed back.

 

I have been using them for 5 years on my flathead. 14,000 miles

 

Thanks for the reply, that's the kind of feedback I was hoping for. By the way, like your car. Have you done anything to it since you posted your photo albums?

 

Anyone have a part # for the K & N in that size?

 

I've had the larger size version on my '69 Suburban daily driver for the last couple years. It's as good as any K&N I've owned, and a huge savings over the K&N I've previously purchased. Mine was $19.99, vs. $120 for K&N. I also use the K&N filter charger system to clean and lube it, and it works great!

 

The K&N number is E-3120 retails for 36.99 Summit sells for around $28. I've decided to buy a pair.

 

When the K&N type filter is a little dirty, it actually cleans better. I just take mine apart and knock the big chunks and bugs off, then put it back on.

 

Thanks,Gene

If you google E-3120 a bunch of places comes up that sells it----one place its $22.66
