Halltech Systems C5 / C6 SuperBee Replacement Air Filter 4.5-Inch Flange - S&B Blue Dry Filter - Black 4.5 - 4.0 Inch Reducing Bushing (1997 - 2013 Chevrolet Corvette) - SP-3262
Upgrade an older Halltech C5 or C6 intake to the current SuperBee replacement filter while keeping the original 4-inch intake bridge with the Halltech Systems SP-3262. This configuration combines Halltech's current 4.5-inch-flange SuperBee replacement filter with the S&B Blue Dry Filter and a black 4.5-inch to 4-inch reducing bushing. The included reducer bridges the size difference between the current filter and Halltech's legacy 4-inch intake hardware, giving older Halltech systems access to the current replacement-filter design without requiring an intake bridge change.
Halltech's current SP-3262 directly fits its Killer Bee MF103, MF108, and CF112 intake systems, Killer Bee II, C5 Venom II, and C6 Venom II. The original first-generation Killer Bee used a smaller 4-inch inlet and requires the reducer included with this configuration. Halltech manufactures the adapter from precision 3D-printed TPU and incorporates molded grip ridges on both its inner and outer surfaces for positive engagement with the intake bridge and filter. Paired with the S&B Blue Dry Filter, this package combines backward compatibility with dry filter media and the airflow capability of Halltech's current SuperBee filter.

S&B Blue Dry SuperBee Filter
This SP-3262 configuration uses Halltech's S&B Blue Dry Filter option. It provides dry filter media for Corvette owners who prefer a dry-filter configuration rather than one of Halltech's oiled filter choices. You retain the current SuperBee filter's 4.5-inch connection and high-flow capability while eliminating the need for an oiled-media configuration.
Black 4.5-Inch to 4-Inch Reducing Bushing Included
The included black reducing bushing allows Halltech's current 4.5-inch SuperBee filter to connect to the company's original 4-inch intake bridges. The adapter reduces the filter connection to an equivalent 4-inch opening, providing a practical upgrade path for legacy Halltech intake systems that cannot directly accept the larger flange of the current SP-3262.
Precision 3D-Printed TPU Adapter
Halltech designed the reducing bushing specifically for this application rather than relying on a generic reducer. It is precision 3D printed from TPU and incorporates molded grip ridges on both the inside and outside surfaces. The internal ridges create engagement with the intake bridge, while the external ridges interface with the filter's internal ridge profile for a secure, clamped connection.
Backward Compatibility for Original 4-Inch Halltech Intakes
The first-generation Halltech Killer Bee used a smaller 4-inch filter connection, while the current SP-3262 uses a 4.5-inch flange. Halltech's reducer was developed specifically to bridge that difference and make the current filter generation backward compatible with its obsolete 4-inch intake bridges. That lets you keep an earlier Halltech intake in service while moving to the current replacement-filter design.
Current 4.5-Inch Halltech Systems Fit the Filter Directly
The reducer is only necessary when adapting the current filter to Halltech's earlier 4-inch hardware. Halltech Killer Bee MF103, MF108, and CF112 systems, Killer Bee II, C5 Venom II, and C6 Venom II accept the current 4.5-inch SP-3262 directly. If you have one of those systems, the filter itself fits without using the included reducing bushing.
Airflow Capacity for High-Performance Corvette Applications
Halltech states that the current SuperBee replacement filter provides enough airflow for naturally aspirated applications producing up to 1,000 HP. Halltech also documents the filter supporting a 9.97-second quarter-mile pass at 137.74 mph on a bolt-on Z06, a 9.97-second pass at 139 mph on a heads-and-cam Z06, and a 10.67-second pass at 129 mph on a bolt-on and cam C6 LS3. The SP-3262 is therefore designed to support serious naturally aspirated airflow demands rather than serving only as a stock-power replacement filter.

Fitment Note: This is a replacement filter for compatible Halltech C5/C6 intake systems and is not a universal replacement filter based solely on Corvette model year. Halltech confirms direct compatibility with Killer Bee MF103, MF108, and CF112 systems, Killer Bee II, C5 Venom II, and C6 Venom II. The included black 4.5-inch to 4-inch reducing bushing allows the current SP-3262 filter to be used with Halltech's original 4-inch intake bridges, including the first-generation Killer Bee.
FAQs
Why does this SP-3262 include a 4.5-inch to 4-inch reducing bushing?
Halltech's current SuperBee replacement filter uses a 4.5-inch flange, while its original intake bridges, including the first-generation Killer Bee, used a smaller 4-inch connection. The included reducer converts the current filter to an equivalent 4-inch opening so it can be used with that legacy Halltech hardware.
What is the difference between this S&B Blue Dry Filter and the S&B Red Oiled version?
This SP-3262 uses Halltech's S&B Blue Dry Filter option, while the red S&B version uses oiled filter media. This configuration is the appropriate choice when you want the current SuperBee replacement filter with dry media plus the reducer needed for an original 4-inch Halltech intake bridge.
