[FC] 140HP aircleaners for FC?

[N2VZD at aol.com]

This is one reason I am looking into a very new approach for air cleaners.  
I think the ones made for my last 4 carb motor may have been part of my  
frustration. It did run better at "street" speeds without the aircleaners.
 Oh well , at least it looks pretty...

It's  been many years and I may be more sensitive/picky than most but I 
believe that  the stock early air cleaners are too restrictive on a stock early 
engine let  alone a 140.
I swapped a late air cleaner on to an early and it ran  noticeably better.  
If I remember correctly it was a 102 and it seemed to  pull harder and rev 
more freely.  Has anyone done any dyno tests on  various air cleaners?
