Product Description

The K&N E-3461 is a high-flow universal oval air filter element purpose-built for carbureted performance and racing applications. Its larger footprint (8.875 in. x 5.25 in.) provides substantial filter surface area, making it an ideal match for high-CFM carburetors such as the Weber IDF, IDA, and DCOE series, as well as Dellorto DRLA and EMPI HPMX/EPC units commonly found on VW-based and Pinto-based performance builds. The multi-layer oiled cotton gauze construction flows significantly more air than any paper element while still trapping harmful contaminants before they reach the engine.

Washable and reusable, the E-3461 is designed to outlast disposable filters many times over, requiring service only every 50,000 miles under normal use. It arrives pre-oiled and ready to install, and is covered by K&N's 10-Year/Million Mile Limited Warranty. Whether you're building a weekend racer, a vintage off-road rig, or a custom street performance engine with aftermarket carburetors, the E-3461 delivers the filtration and airflow capacity your build demands.
