Uhhh, isn't that what I just posted? BTW, the Xtreme Filter top came. I'm going to try and turn it into aluminum this weekend. The bottom base of the Xtreme top does not fit with the existing filter, and the new filter will not fit with the existing base that fits my 4160 carb. But I think my existing base is easily modified to be flat, so I'll do that after I take some measurements. I got thrown off my schedule fetching one of the kids home from college and the three tons of crap that needed to be moved.
