1. A velocity air stack for connection to carburetor systems of internal-combustion powered vehicles, comprising a generally cylindrical member having an air inlet end and an air discharge end;an air filter for the removal of contaminant particles entrained in the airflow being arranged proximate the air discharge end of said cylindrical member and;a ring member which is mountable to the air discharge end of said cylindrical member clampedly retaining said filter between said air discharge end and said ring member, said cylindrical member comprising a frustoconical portion having the larger diameter end forming said air inlet end and the smaller diameter end retaining said air filter in clamped engagement with said ring member. 2. A velocity air stack as claimed in claim 1, wherein said cylindrical member, said air filter and said ring member are each constituted of a corrosion-resistant material. 3. A velocity air stack as claimed in claim 2, wherein said corrosion-resistant material comprises stainless steel. 4. A velocity air stack as claimed in claim 1, wherein said ring member includes circumferentially spaced, axially extending bolt holes to facilitate the attachment of said velocity air stack to the carburetor system of said vehicle. 5. A velocity air stack as claimed in claim 1, wherein said ring member comprises an internal breather support structure for a carburetor, including venting apertures to enable engine air pressure from said vehicle to be vented to atmosphere. 6. A velocity air stack as claimed in claim 5, wherein said internal breathers support structure comprises a plate-shaped member including a plurality of radially extending lugs having air passageways formed by said venting apertures. 7. A velocity air stack as claimed in claim 1, wherein said cylindrical member sand said ring member are fastened together through cooperating screwthreaded surface positions. 8. An internal breather support for connection to a carburetor system of internal-combustion powered vehicles, comprising a plate-shaped structure including venting apertures for enabling engine air pressure from said vehicle to be vented to atmosphere. 9. An internal breather support as claimed in claim 8, wherein said plate-shaped structure comprises a ring portion having radially extending lugs incorporating airflow passageways constituted by said venting apertures; and holes formed in the outer ends of said lugs for receiving hollow bolts facilitating flow of air therethrough while providing connections with a carburetor system. 10. An internal breather support as claimed 8 , wherein said support is connectable to an air discharge end of a velocity air stack for a carburetor system. 11. An internal breather support as claimed in claim 8, wherein said breather support is constituted of a corrosion-resistant material. 12. An internal breather support as claimed in claim 11, wherein said corrosion-resistant material comprises stainless steel. 13. An internal breather support as claimed in claim 8, wherein said plate-shaped structure comprises connecting means for mounting an air filter.
