I need a low-profile air filter for a 15mm carb inlet
I'm putting together a new RC, and the engine has a 15mm carb inlet, unlike most of my RC engines that have smaller inlets. So my normal choice for air filters (HPI Nitro RS4) won't work. Traxxas air filters will fit, but they are all too tall and stick up above the top of the engine's heatsink, which will make it difficult to fit a body shell without cutting a big hole for the air filter -- something I'd rather not do if I can avoid it. The shortest Traxxas air filter I can find is 43mm from the top of the filter housing to the bottom of the rubber fitting; can anyone suggest a different air filter that is more like 30mm from top to bottom? If it has a right-angle fitting to position the filter off to the side to reduce its height, that's fine -- it just needs to fit a 15mm carb inlet and stay below the top of the engine heatsink if at all possible.

Or maybe an on-road type like this. https://www.redrc.net/2009/12/xceed-...r-filters-oil/

!5mm carb inlet is gas or petrol engine size. Most nitro air filters are by scale size.

What about the Dynamite air filters.
