I recently acquired a diesel pulling tractor and there is no air filter on it to provide maximal air flow...(the oil bath has been removed)

I was wondering if anybody had any thoughts about adding a K and N filter (should I do it or should i not do it) and the easiest way to add one (without major plumbing work)-----there is the simple kill switch that drops a rain cap on the air intake in the event of a mishap...anythoughts?

The K & N will keep the larger chunks of dirt out of the engine. For a highway vehicle or field work tractor the K & N's do not filter fine enough. The previous owner was a fool to think he was gaining HP running without a filter. Using a proper sized K & N would not even show a loss on a dyno.
