K&N Filter Upgrade
Published by glider (Community Liaison)
Published date: 10-27-2007
The K&N air filter for the Screamin’ Eagle assembly is available to upgrade the stage 1 already in use after K&N is not the supplier for the MOCO any longer.
It's part# HD-0800. This air filter replaces the Screamin’ Eagle air filter part number 29442-99B (Blue one). The HD 0800 will replace the following filters 29442-99A - B & C

The K&N filter can be identified with the number A063A4 stamped into the band of the filter.

The K&N can be found at Auto zone and other automotive stores but probably has to be ordered for you at a cost of about $43.
They have to enter the part number HD 0800 to access it.

K&N Customer Service 800-858-3333 or 951-826-4000. K&N does NOT make the blue banded filter.

The Stage 1 from the dealer came with the K&N a while back but now comes with a paper filter instead of the K&N which usually is not oilable but is cleanable.

The K&N needs a cleaner to service it K&N PN 99883-88T
and an oiling with K&N PN 99332-88T. Most automotive suppliers carry the service kits for the K&N filters

Cleaning Instructions http://www.knfilters.com/cleaning.htm
DO NOT use compressed air or heat to dry the filter or you will damage the filter media.

The Arlen Ness stage 1 kit seen below uses a filter made by Airaid with a similar makeup as the K&N meaning it has the 4 layers of gauze material much like the K&N does and is cleanable and can be oiled.


Here's the Arlen Ness filter for comparison.


Frequently asked questions about K&N filters...

http://www.knfilters.com/faq.htm


When switching from the blue filter to the K&N filter, there is no further downloads or adjustments needed as some have been told by dealers.

Pre Filter Wraps...

For a pre filter wrap , try these people for a sock . 1-800-967-3450. Called Outer Wear.

Here's a link to the foam prefilters... http://www.knfilters.com/airforcewraps.htm

And another NON foam one... http://www.knpowersports.com/wraps.htm

K&N Cleanable and oilable




Blue banded one that was found in the HD Stage 1 kits for a period of time. This filter is NOT cleanable or oilable and has been known to come apart and be injested into the engine.




Also a reply from Zippers performance http://www.zippersperformance.com/

Our upgrade to the Screamin Eagle filter is # 162-295 and is $74.95.
This filter is taller than a stock and does require the use of a round EVO
style cover.

Here's a link to the taller filter...

Stock filter on the left, taller K&N one on the right.

Re: K&N Filter Upgrade

glider:

I just purchased a K&N replacement filter for my '08 FLHT, which had the Screamin' Eagle round filter. The new filter # HD 0800, is the right size, but the backing plate holes to not match up. So, I'm wondering what is wrong with this picture?

Any comments greatly appreciated...
