Being the pot-stirring contrarian that people think I am (they're right, BTW) I'm going to say "none of the above"! You need an air cleaner element about two inches taller to assure there won't be any restriction to airflow. Use the biggest diameter filter that will fit comfortably, and make it at least three inches tall.
