Description:

Front Burgess Air Filter for Austin Healey 100 & 100M

This front Burgess-type air filter is a precise reproduction of the original assembly fitted to Austin Healey 100 and 100M (BN1–BN2) models. Manufactured exclusively for A H Spares by its sister company A H Panels, this unit features a strong steel housing with black finish and includes the correct aluminium Burgess plaque secured beneath the central bolt. The front version incorporates the factory-style breather pipe outlet for crankcase ventilation, exactly as on original Burgess filters.

Why Choose This Air Filter

Made in the UK by A H Panels for A H Spares, this front Burgess-type air filter provides a faithful reproduction of the original Healey 100 and 100M component.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this air filter include the element?

No. The filter element is sold separately under part FCM1481.

Is the Burgess plaque glued or riveted on?

Neither. The plaque is secured by the central bolt that holds the filter assembly together, replicating the original Burgess construction.

Which filter includes the breather pipe?

The front filter (FCM1478) includes the breather outlet. The rear filter (FCM1480) has a smooth casing without a breather.

Can this be used on later Healey models?

No. This filter is specific to BN1 and BN2 models only. Later six-cylinder Healeys use different intake systems.
