Series V Air filers for stromberg cd150 carbs

[Acollin]

Hello all
Do gt6 air filters fit on series V alpine cd 150 strombergs?
i see Moss sells them.
classic sunbeam appears to be out of stock and my catalog for ss is pretty old. Anyone know if ss has them?
thanks
Andrew

What I have seen from Sunbeam Specialties is that they sell the metal housings and a separate washable filter element. I bought the washable filter elements from SS thinking I could try them with my existing filter housings (if I opened them up...) I recall the washable filters were purple colored and they were thicker than stock. I ended up not using them. I think I found some repros on EBay years ago. Just did a quick search now on EBay and not seeing what I had purchased back then.

This is a company in New Zealand on there web site they show the Dimensions of the filter and show it as fitting Triumph GT6
Based on those dimensions the filters Moss is selling should fit

I wonder if the Moss Motors GT6 filters are missing the connection point for the hose that goes to the flame trap.

I took a old set of filters carefully took them apart cleaned and painted the "shells" put cleanable K&N filters in. Although they're a little taller it's not an issue.

I actually missed the “flame trap” port on the gt6 filter. I see the air filters are available in the UK so I am not that concerned about replacing mine. Although I would prefer to patronize / support our suppliers in the states. No ill will intended.

Flame trap—Mine is still in place but was there ever really a need or a concern for the flame trap?
Thanks for the replies

the GT6 filters do not have the flame trap fitting as they go inside a full filter casing which is connected to the rocker cover - they do however have a big hole in the outside face almost identical to the Carb mounting face (you can see it in the picture from the link provided above) which makes them unsuitable for direct fitting - I know because I bought pair thinking I might simply have to drill the outside face and add a fitting for the flame trap pipes.....
