Correct. Kohler called it a noise suppression air cleaner, and offered the double height for the K341. The Cub Cadet 169 is the only make and/or model garden tractor, that I know of, to wear it. The single height noise suppressions were worn by many different non Cubs. I relate it to an old Buick Star Wars air cleaner, not much more performance, but it looks cool.

Yea it does certainly look cool - I'd love to have one myself for my k301

I used a noise suppression cleaner, off of a Case 2XX, that I found on eBay for cheap, a hat from a M20 that I parted, the wing nut from the 123, an expensive seal and cheap filter/pre filter kit from Kohler, a piece of all thread and a nut coupler, and a 2" hole saw. I don't think it would fool a judge, or is show quality, but it didn't cost much and I think it will look cool on my 123. http://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/a...1&d=1388121233

How much did this set up cost you to run done deal?
