There is a speed shop here in Tulsa that sells the drop base 14" round air cleaners in chrome for about $15.00. The element is fine for our Cobra's but if you want something different you can always order a K&N filter and drop it into your filter housing. I believe they are around $50.

When I had my engine dyno'd I tested it with the drop base w/ standard filter, then with K&N filter in the drop base , and then with no filter. Both air filters showed comparative HP numbers, but I found that I was loosing about 12 hp going with any kind of air filter. Both had sufficient air flow for my 427 engine.
