I was looking for the air filter elements used on the football air cleaners D, E, and H. I saw a note in the old Enews issues that K&N E1959 would fit. It has been discontinued without replacement. AC A84C, Fram CA163PL, Purolator AFP15, WIX 42042 are listed as replacements but I did not find any. Nick Taylor says Matt Allyn had a round air filter element (Fram CA184, $5.99/ea) squashed to fit his 300H air cleaners. They are easy to squeeze into the oval shape but it is a tight fit. Squeeze it into the lid of the air cleaner first; it needs to fit all the way into the recess in the top. Then put the base on and work the filter to fit in there. Once it's done, it looks pretty good and when bolted to the carb, it's not going anywhere. Here is a link to pictures.

Nick Taylor writes: A friend with a 300G was having a problem with their odometer. I sent him one out of a spare 1960 cluster, thinking they were the same. Turns out they aren't. In this picture, the 1960 version is at the bottom with the 1961 above. I don't know about 1962 ones. The font is different but so is the design of it to where they won't exchange.
