Who has them for 90.00? I wouldn't mind seeing a set. The PMD ones are a little small for the kinghauler. I'd pay 90 If they actually looked like Vortox's.

Joe , nobody is on a throne here In fact I'm far from having any riches cept what I can do with my own hands and antique tools and machines . I think we where just confused as to where the $90.00 air cleaners come from . thats all

so have a good evening
