I have two of the K&N S&S filters. You have to modify the backing plate slightly by grinding off a ridge to make them fit. Just so you know.
Here's the page:

The S&S filters are at the bottom.

Thanks, the shop ordered in just the tear drop filter, not the super e tear drop. there is a little difference in width and when the cover was tightened on the filter had about 1/4 inch of movement and won't seal.

I had my previous motor stroked and tuned and had similar problems. The first carb I used was an Edelbrock, that couldn't feed it, so I bought a twin-choke SE Holley. That did the same as you describe. Solved the problem with an S&S - complete with a whole S&S motor!
