Carb filers

[Dcsinclair22]

Hi guys me again, one of the 1st things I would like to do when the car arrives is look into the carb filters (or lack of) as you can see in the pics, there's no filtration of any kind on the carbs, my question is can I get filters to slide over the ram pipes or is it better to take the ram pipes off and fit filter? Or is it better to leave as it is? I know years ago a few layers of the misses tights would have sufficed buy I want to do this one properly lol

I used to have foam filters on mine - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/352081220887

Perfect cheers mate I'm guessing they just slot over the trumpets, I'm aware I might need to adjust carbs a little to allow for the slight air restriction

Yes, you have to stretch them over the trumpets - go gently, it's easy to get too enthusiastic and rip them.    Don't ask how I know !!!     They come in a variety of sizes and I would recommend going for the longest you can fit in between carb and side panel.  As long as they were kept clean I didn't find any noticeable difference in performance.

I used ITG sock filters on bike carbs. They were tested on a rolling road and made no loss in performance.
