NEW??? AC Delco oil filters

[Doug Domm]

Alan, Just checked that out and I read it as the AC filters are blue in color however here in Canada they have always been painted white with a painted logo and yes have the metal tube inside. These NEW blue ones also have the metal tube inside but just appear to be constructed on the light side. Maybe these are the ones you have always seen but are definately new to me and just seem cheaply made compared to the GOOD OLE Canadian ones. How about that high priced AC PH35L? Has anyone got anything to share on that filter?

Thank you comp387 for the offer. The "L" filter over the counter retails for $29.00 here and my cost on it is just short of $18.00. I would still like to hear more about this filter. I am now wondering if there is a difference between the US PH35 and the Canadian PH35. Maybe the "L" filter is different too.

From the GM performance parts catalog

"25013454 -synthetic oil filter

The PF-35L heavy duty spin on oil filter can replace any PF-25 or PF-35 filter on 1968-up Chevrolet V-8 engines. It has a 100% synthetic element that is rated at 12 microns. Its synthetic glass filter media provides finer filtration than conventional cellulose(paper) filters.The individual strands of synthetic glass used in the PF35L are smaller and more consistent in sizethan cellulose fibers.These glass fibers are supported by a polyestersheet laminated on both sides,and the pleated synthetic filter element is backed by a metal screen. This extremely efficient filter can reduce engine wear by 75% compared to conventional filters without restricting the flow of oil"----OK???? Comp 387

I have been happy with the Baldwin Racing filter. The can will withstand the high pressures a racing motor produces and filters as well as any out there.
