Abstract: An apparatus and method for a heat shield with an integrated air filter assembly is disclosed. Wherein the air filter assembly comprising a filter material circumferentially extending such that the filter material surrounds at least a portion of an interior cavity of the air filter, a distal end cap affixed to a distal end of the filter material, and a wire support extending along at least a portion of an exterior surface of the filter material; and wherein the heat shield is configured to direct cooler air into an air intake conduit extending from an intake portion of an automobile engine for combustion.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method are provided for a filter airflow demonstrator to provide a visual representation of resistance to air flow through an air filter. The airflow demonstrator comprises a housing that includes an opening configured to receive the air filter. An edge portion of the opening receives a perimeter of the air filter, such that a filter medium of the air filter is disposed over the opening. An electric fan within an interior of the housing draws the air flow through the filter medium into the housing. A transparent stand pipe is disposed atop the housing, such that a lumen of the stand pipe transports the air flow from the interior to an exterior of the housing. A ball within the central lumen travels upwards therein under the action of the air flow to provide an indication of resistance to the air flow through the air filter.
