Help for a newbie please!!!

Anyone know where I can get the cleaners for the 1958 ovals? I need two for my brand new gold cans so we can run in my rebuilt motor.

I emailed Gary Goers a while back and got no reply at all.

i have found a manufacturer in Turkey who is contracted to caterpillar and makes a compatible filter to the same pattern. I am hoping their english is good so i can try to buy a trade quantity of these filters to make available to club members...it all depends on how good his english is, because I can't speak Turkish!!

How much demand is there likely to be for these items if i could get a bulk quantity??

How feasible is it to buy the taller filters and cut them down to fit into the 1958 style canisters??

Location: bishop, ca		The illustrated air filters won't win you any car show awards, because they are obviously new/aftermarket items.

The OEM guys have 'chicken-wire' square pattern wire closures on it.

If you are going after-market, here is the K & N air filters; pricey, but cleanable and reusable.

Location: West Chester, PA		Air filters are considered "consumables", but thanks for your input!
Feel free to spend stupid money on your OEM/NOS air filters.
I posted this here for the people who are looking for an inexspensive alternative, not for the pricey OEM 'chicken-wire' chicken footed d-bags...
