Are you wanting the replacement filters to go in the Cooper airbox, or the pancake filters that screw on the back of the carbs direct ?

I have some nice GAZ shocks available, but it is a set of four.

Hi Alex

On the airfilter subject, I want to get the best performance out of the car so, what would be better pancake or the filter to go in the standard housing? Do you have any for sale?

Also I'm just looking for 2 front shock absorbers as the car is hydrolastic.

Forgot to mention to you have a lucas headlight, or know of anywhere I could get one.

Thanks Alex.

Now that's a question open to debate !
For max performance, the pancake type are probably best, but not the cone type. Using the standard airbox with replacement filters has distinct advantages with noise reduction.

Do you have to have a Lucas lamp ?

Try reading this article from Keith Calver on the performance differences between different filter-styles (both K&N). Basically, he tests a standard ring-style replacement filter in the airbox, then tests it with holes drilled in the airbox, then tests a cone filter. He doesn't mention the pancake style - not sure why.
