Beautiful machine, nice video and zero bs narration, Do you know if the socks are a new thing there to avoid the need to oil the filters now please? I noticed that in some car videos the oiled ‘performance’ filters have been blamed for damaging MAF sensors. Apparently this is attributed to oil droplets travelling through the air flow leading to contamination of delicate components further down the intake system. Looking forward to watching your following upgrades. Best wishes
I worked at K&N engineering and that is a false statement there are no droplets that can possibly get through they have tested this over and over on equivalent of a 5000 hp motor and over oiled it and still there was zero oil droplets. The intake draw over the entire surface of the filters is about the same draw you would get from putting a T-shirt outside of your window in your car at 55 miles an hour. So never worry about oil coming off of the filter it’s impossible. You can go to their site and actually look at the testing that they did.
Vroom vroom and boom boom...Hanks the man with all the toys!
Ha Ha I have a few 🙏🏽
Hank did you remove the bags the K&N were in? I had a 84 S-10 Blazer that was upgraded to a 350 V8 that made 450hp
not sure what bags you're talking about...if its those thin socks that were on them, they're meant to stay on as an extra filter
@@strangerpalooza Ah okay. My mistake sorry.
Just got mine for my Gen 2, Thanks for the video
