Thanks, salesman seems optimistic, called DC today and they say it "shipped " on 6/3 and should get to the dealer 10-14 days . But the DC dealer log in web page shows movement back to the plant from the carrier, maybe I should stop looking

got my 300c on 5/22/04, its that jade pearl color (lite green) with lots of options, paid list at $38,660. and would do it again. got about 600 miles on it. changed to castrol syntec oil at 310 miles. you right, k&n says no proper filter available at this date (6/13/04. the car is awesome!

Well,
My filter came in today, and it fits perfect. Exact same fit as the stock one...

Thanks Again for finding this out for us.

is the filter a perfect fit or slightly smaller as someone elase suggested?

There's a tiny amount of play between the filter and the stock airbox. It is VERY slightly smaller than the stock filter, but it's definitely not a functional issue. When the airbox clamps down, it holds the filter in place anyway. For an air filter, it's a perfect fit.

Anyone else notice a performance boost?

I just installed the bentley K&N and the Hemi seems to like it it seems a bit louder like you can hear the engine better and it seems to up the HP a little. And as an update there is now a 300C K&N filter so dont order the bentley one anymore unless someone can prove it has mor hp than the 300 C one It seems to be a different color and the 300C one is like $10 cheaper.

It would be interesting to do a dyno run with each filter, and actually see which filter performs better. Then again, the performance boost, or difference might be so small it doesn't matter. I personally think the look of the Bentley filter is a little more heavy duty looking, but I haven't seen the new 300C filter in person yet either.

The bently has fewer pleats = better flow?

I have had the 1978 Bentley filter by K&N in for about 500 miles I cant tell any difference from stock...
