Thanks, I needed to order up an alternator belt and this helped. It is indeed the saame size between the two spreadsheets I found.

One thing you need to consider. The military filter can be washed and reused again and again. Commercial filters cannot.

This is good to know, I was not aware. What is the best method to wash this? Degreaser in water in a five gallon bucket? Thanks.

This is just a thought but knowing how these engines do not like intake restrictions (poor flowing aftermarket filters). I wonder if turned up trucks would benefit from a different filter setup that can flow more air and possibly decrease egt’s. We know that the dust bowl filters cause higher egt’s so can the reverse happen with more capacity.

This is exactly why I went with an m35a3 intake and filter on my m109 when I put an LDS in it. Stock m35 filter is 410cfm, m35a3 filter per the phone call with the manufacturer is 575cfm.
