Hi Michael, thats probably the most likely although i prefer something a bit more classic looking . a box that can be fitted with a pleated low resistance but efficiant paper element .On my99 I use a cut Austin mini filter bedded in on one side in a mastic seal . the box also needs a bit of crafty shielding from the elements to avoid getting wet. With modern fully synthetic lubricants and proper filtration a rebore should last for 100,000 miles or more , or at least till the 99 throws a rod !!.
