M 4-5 carb filter
Where can I get a low profile filter , I have a 3" adapter to bolt on the updraft carb.

K&N makes low profile 3" inlet air filters - have you checked their website? http://www.knfilters.com/universal/universal.htm

You can go grab one at Advance Auto off the shelf. Lowest profile I could find.

I was told by an engine builder that these filters would choke a 540 or 520, that they would not flow enough air. Any truth to that? I really need one to keep the dirt daubers out of my carb.

I have a similar K&N filter on my 470, but it is twice as long. It is safety wired to the adapter.

Re: M 4-5 carb filter
if your main concern is keeping dirt daubers and the like out of the carb and not so much filtering the air I would suggest a spark arrestor set up
