What air intake filters is everybody using?

Id like to get rid of the intake box and use a nice K&N or something else, was wondering what everyone else is running.

Thanks in advance

Thanks for all the advice fellas, but despite being a 78 car this is running a manual choke already, so I dont have that worry. (Should I be worried that it isnt an auto for that year????)

Chances of it actually going out on a freezin cold day are pretty slim, would use the everyday car if its that cold, but I suppose you must never rule out that possibility.

And final nail in the coffin is that the hot/cold mechanism on the filter box isnt there, nor is it in any of the box of bits. Hence my intention to get some sort of aftermarket filter and housing to replace Mr Fords metal monstrosity!!!

That was nice of someone!!! Oh well, at least thats one less thing to go wrong not having auto choke!!

Still no further on a decent aftermarket filter though, but then it is restricted on height due to underbonnet clearance I suppose.
