      Anyone,

      When we first started trying to quiet things down, one of the areas we looked at was intake noise.  We used to use a stretch on filter housing with small filter disks that helped the noise problems with the added benefit of keeping crap out of the engine--gee, what a concept.  Are there any such animals available now?  We fly off an old asphalt runway and there is the possibility something significant was sucked into a brand new 170 and destroyed the piston, sleeve, ring and bearing.  First time for everything, I guess.  The 60 sized ones did not seem to affect performance.

      Thanks,

      Richard
