i'm intending to change the oil bath filter on my wc to a dry k&n mounted behind the 464 body carb.......any pros and cons to mounting directly at carb, or use a piece of pipe (what length?) between carb and filter.......

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! dont use a k&n, they have a known history for letting air that is unfiltered and pure dust get past them.

Above the hood is best, but if you use a metal tube that is bent by a tailpipe bender with a pinched corner.......I don't know how good that is. Smooth mandrel bent piping as larger or larger diameter than the carb inlet is best. K&N filters are fine when oiled properly.
