Air Filters and Jetting

I have a carburetted 99' that had a V&H exhaust set put on it and was re-jetted with Factorypro components. I think the pilot jet is #42, the main jet is #120 and needle is in the second position. It's fine and it will get 40 mpg if I drive like I borrowed it. What will happen if I install a K&N air filter to replace the stock paper element filter? I tried a Caddmann conversion and that will definitely require carburetor work. I would like better air flow without lots of work.
