Posted by jgregory21  -  02/18/2007 08:33 PM I am building '26 ford touring, using what was available, early 302. I went and got remote unit for mine, I had very little room, as a matter of fact, my buddy said I couldn't do it. There is a short and long version, but circumference are same.

Keep kroozen, Jim Jim [ View ] [ Email ] [ Blogs ] [ Car Ads ] Huntingtown, Maryland   Posted by glrchotrods  -  02/19/2007 10:39 AM Its close on the bottom corner, so either shorter or less diameter will fix the problem.

Dick B. glrchotrods [ View ] [ Email ] [ Blogs ] [ Car Ads ] Toledo, Ohio   Posted by koolstuff0099  -  02/22/2007 01:09 PM Dick, I recently sold my Napa Auto Parts store that I started 25+ years ago. I'm pretty sure than Napa listed a replacement filter for a OMC (marine) application using a sm blk Chevy. It was considerably shorter than the #1069 "short" filter that has been used for years. If you have not solved your problem , Email me an I'll be happy to go thru their books and come up with that filter number. I'm still in the store often (I'm the landlord) and is a half mile from my house. Let me know. FUNNY STORY......When I was much younger I had a Camaro with a filter clearance / header problem. I actually put a filter in my vise and with a pipe for leverage I SQUISHED (is that a word?)the filter to make it fit!!!!!..........Young & Dumb Koolstuff [ View ] [ Email ] [ Blogs ] [ Car Ads ] Newburyport, Massachusetts   Posted by JAWS  -  02/22/2007 03:01 PM That's not that dumb... At least you didn't let the car leak till it stopped. Mine used to blow the seal in the filter adapter and drip on the header. Very embarassing when I pulled to a light in my mean chevelle. Only to be over taken by the cloud I was out running. It eventually stopped on its own...... So did the engine...

He could explain all of the evils about using Fram filters. orphans2 [ View ] [ Email ] [ Blogs ] [ Car Ads ] Stewartstown, Pennsylvannia Charter Member since November 2001   Posted by rnvilla  -  08/18/2008 12:57 AM If you have any questions about the quality of oil filters, do what I did-- Buy a new filter of every brand I could find and cut them open. I spent a few dollars on the filters, but a lot less money than the price of repairing an oil starved motor. Anyway, piece of mind is worth a few dollars. BTW, I use Wix filters.
