Which filter do you guys use for your bhaf?
 
On PSD's we use the 6637, but I see you guys talking about all kinds of other filters. So which is the best to use that bolts right in?

mine at napa was a 2790.

Ya I was seeing the 2790. Is that better than the 6637, or is that just the proper fit for the cummins?

cummins95 03-03-2010 04:04 PM

^oh bad-ass guys! So I dont need a piece of exhaust piping or pcv or anything? The 2790 will clamp right to the intake tract?

yes, mount the filter on a chunk of exhaust tubing, pvc, or abs. If you mount the filter directly the the tube it can come off, letting unfiltered air in.

What size pcv should I use? 4" od or id?

measure the insside of your filter

I never had a 2790 BHAF come off the stock inlet tube on my '97...not in 3 years of daily driving. I had one pop off the tube on my ol 1st gen CTD and it sucked a rag laying in the fenderwell up through the turbo...BOOM!

Wix & Napa Filters & Accessories: FleetFilter Secure Online Store #42790 is only like $44. I buy all my filters from them.
