Looks like non-drop

It looks like a non-drop Eric, but it rises pretty high.
That could be a drop base with an adapter underneath for the picture.
Hard to say.
The K&N kit I got had a drop base, and I went to a performance shop and bought a non-drop base for $9. (just the base portion)

i also bought a k&n with the drop base because at the time thats what everyone said was best...oh its great at hindering airflow because of the spacer ring and its nice having a metal lid hitting the throttle cable and coil...i bought a mr g asket non drop base for 10$ and i like it...much better
