All suggestions on filters most aporeciated Thanks in advance They were aftermarket ones and I doubt they would fit a sidescreen car as the front one would probably foul the inner wing. K&N do a pair of conical type that are upswept so will definitely fit. No idea of the part numbers though Andrew Smith had them on his car. Stuart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ralph Whitaker Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 I used these standard filters, for a TR4 I think, but proper paper element filters rather than the original wire dipped in oil affairs that the TR3s had. Only about £8 each too, so cheap enough to replace. Had to bend the front one in a bit to clear the wing on my H6s, but should be plenty of room with HS6s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ian Vincent Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 If you use the HS6s with a decent (I.e. TR4a manifold then space is limited. Those in the picture would be too fat. Rgds Ian Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rgds Ian Yes I have a tr4a manifold, so will need to find something thinner, The body is not on the car at the minute so can not measure distances etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BlueTR3A-5EKT Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 (edited) With HS6 and the long TR4A inlet manifold on a sidescreen car, to avoid the front filter whacking the inner wing, I have one of these on the front carb, which has an upwards offset mounting hole. https://www.moss-europe.co.uk/air-filter-kn-hs6-offset-hole-45mm-kn56-9132.html and one of these with a central mounting hole on the rear carb. https://www.moss-europe.co.uk/air-filter-kn-hs6-centre-hole-45mm-kn56-1400a.html failing that 2 of these. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/283164740964?hash=item41edef0d64:g:FpQAAOSw2xZd8lWCHi Edited December 24, 2021 by BlueTR3A-5EKT Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Drewmotty Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 The cone shaped K&Ns fit a treat and provide more filter area/air flow than the pancake filters. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yep the thin pancake filters you often see fitted really strangle the engine. Stuart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
