I'm looking to replace the old, deteriorating paper 3-bolt air filters on my B20. Any good (possibly affordable) choices for this replacment. Any help would be much appreciated.

I had the same problem. I'm having an aluminum set of disks made up that will hold a replacable filter about the same size as the original (Fram CA-77). Once the plates are done, I'll have them anodized and be done with the search.

Cheers,
Craig

Got a brand new set of those from NAPA. Can't recall the number off hand (sorry).
If all else fails, you could get elements that were close and re-use the end-plates.

Check IPD or K&N web site, pricy, but lifetime use.

It is my one ZS175CD carb (I own a 121 amazon) with one k&n filter:

I too have a K&N on my Zenith 175 CD on my Duett. Likely I will use K&N when its time to switch to dual SUs.

I'd wash those ones that you have if they are in reasonable condition. Quality paper filters are washable like truck filters.

Get the original filters at www.scandcar.com !
Partsnumber and pricing are listed on the site. K&N is possible but not better I suppose....

Call FCP Groton 120-130

I've been in touch with Nick Bauer from FCP Groton and they sell thos canister filters for $60.00 a set. You have to call as it's not on their website yet.

Alternatively, you could grab the air-box setup from a 140 Volvo - single filter bridges both carb. There one on ebay right now, but there are certain "risks" with such a setup.
