We have the wet type and want to change to the dry. Anyone know where we can find one? And if we do what modern filter fits? If not suggestions for modifying the wet one and what filter to use?

Air filter Elements for the Dry type are available, no need to modify it or look for a modern replacement.
If there were one, (another application) they would use the Stude. replacement Fram/Purolator etc. also!
Coupe/Hardtop and Sedan/Wagon do have different length connector pipes to the Carb.StudeRich
