This might sound really silly but I wonder if you'd get less dirt in your oil if you wrapped the K&N filter with some pantihose? I know they sell those filter wraps too, but pantihose might just help out too wouldn't it? Of course you could only do this on a cone type K&N.
I'd feel like a fool going into the ladies section of Walmart to look for pantihose though, and which brand to get? They don't show air flow ratings on the boxes!
And my wife would kill me if I ever raided her pantihose drawer!
I'm dying to get the 10hp boost from the K&N FIPK for my LT1, but don't want the extra dirt getting into my oil either. If only I could replace the K&N cone with a paper cone. The main gain from that unit is the plastic tubing, not the filter itself.
