Try Fleetfilter.com
They have the best prices on most filters.
I order, and receive them in 2-3 days UPS ground.
Try to order all your filters at once, save postage.

Be aware that according to many studies K&N will pass larger particles than the AC Delco.

The studies are available on the net.

K&N passes big particles With all due respect Tom, could you point out that site for me. I do know that when first cleaned and oiled they aren't quit as tight as when they've been used a few hundred miles. I have seen problems when people over oil them when servicing, that causes they air mass sensor to send a incorrect signal to the computer, like it see's a clogged or wet filter.

Steve,

Also remeber that not all oiled cotton filters are made alike.The K&N is a 4 layer filter while the Ultrapower is 8 layers.An 8 layer filter is 98 percent efficient,where as most paper is 93 percent.

This information is directly off the Fram Air Hog Website!
There are several auto stores that not only carry AC Fiters but Also Fram Air Hogs!


What is the Micron Rating and Filter efficiency of an AirHog™ filter? The High Performance filters are rated at +97% overall efficiency at a nominal 26-28 micron (Course Test Dust Rating).
This is based on the following:
Test Procedure SAE J726, Section 4.4
Rated Test flow based on most common application for model filter being tested.
Filter is oiled between 1 gram/14.7 SQ-IN media to 1 gram/10 SQ-IN media
FRAM® AirHog™ Oil is applied to dirty side of filter.
Happy Miles
