just built up a 98cc flathead. Governor is removed, and the air filter is made of dense foam, any source for a material with better flow I can cut to shape myself?

I have a 79cc preddy. My plan for air filter for it is to cut a plate out on 1/2" aluminum and clamp on a k&n style filter to that. Got the idea from AGK but I'm going to do it myself. Check it out maybe it will work for you.

I think my air filter may have just been dirty. I got the engine (98cc minibike engine) used, and I don't know how often they cleaned it. I washed it good, seems to be breathing better now.

I just cut off a chunk from one of my wifes black socks that are made out of that fine fine materials stronger than a nylon yet kinda the same texture. Of course ya might have to endure the "Honey the dryer ate another one of my stockings again" Ask me no questions... I tell you no lies........

For that, fishnet stockings make a great and sexy pre-filter. Again, honey, I think the dryer ate those too! laff

You mean tights mad out of lycra or spandex, not 100% spandex but are stretchy and thicker than nylons?
I was wondering about those myself.
