The Diameter of the filters inlets, the shape and the fact that the filters need to attached to the support bracket at the top end of the filter.

The problem is that there is a bolt on the Stillen filters that attaches to the radiator support

And those bolts are not original to the K&N elements.

They drill a hole in the filter tops to accommodate the bolts.
