The filter can be sized to have virtually no restriction... I was thinking of cutting and end off two Mopar hemi oval air filters and bonding them together. The filter element also ends up not being directly in the line of any reversion fuel that may come out of the stacks to hopefully mimimize chances of fire.
If you have the room, go for it.

I have always wanted to run a common airbox, and may still do one day.

There are filter elements available from K&N etc.
