A filter box of similar capacity to std will keep the current tuneup working correctly, socks will get you flat spots that will need tuning out

Kevin, I have put about 3 ZX14 engines in race cars, the latest one is supercharged running about 300HP.
Keep the stock velocity stacks or go for longer ones for more torque. You won't need an airbox but if you do use one make sure it is plenty big enough otherwise it will rob power!
Most motorcycle engined cars use one filter over the 4 velocity stacks.
