I installed this K&N high-flow air cleaner, and
 nothing drips any more. Seems the few drops of fuel just gets absorbed by
 the washable air filter element, and nothing drips out of the air cleaner
 assembly. I tried several starts and re-starts, and there is no evidence
 of
 fuel anywhere.  I suspect that the few drops of fuel that are absorbed by
 the air cleaner element just slowly evaporate, because when I removed the
 air cleaner about 1/2 hour after shutdown, I could find no traces of fuel
 anywhere.  Here are a couple of pictures of the installation. Any and all
 comments, as usual, are very welcome.  Paul Conner, 13b powered SQ2000

Very nice installation. The air cleaner seems to have a very small surface
area. There should be room for a pair of streamlining air horns in the box with
one throat diameter between the end of the horn and the cover. Is there any
porting done to the engine?
