Thanks. Just bought 2.

That is the Wix Racing. Regular ones are 6 bucks on Prime

 

[Kendog 170]

Dam. What's the difference from the regular filter?

If it matters....the ones in the link are made in China.

 

[66Valiant528]

I think different size micron rating and by pass style and thicker case. I believe if it clogs it by passes allowing unfiltered oil through. I think. Can't remember but it made me not run that filter. BTW I run a K&N synthetic media filter as there is no pleated paper to deteriorate.

I bought a couple about 3-months ago. They were the regular 51515 filters - not the 51515R racing filters. The ones I received were also made in the US, not that it means anything anymore.

19.60 each for us Canadians .

So it appears the difference is max GPM of flow 7 to 9 for 51515 as opposed to 28 GPM for the race filter. And the micron rating is different. The R let's dirt up to 61 microns through as opposed to 21 a third smaller for the street filter. Both bypass at the same psi .

I bought two, I’ve been using the FL1A from Walmart for my slant six but it’s gone up $4 in the last 3 years. I’ll give these a shot.

Showed up an hour ago!

Both the street version, both made in USA. Might just order 10 or so and put them in the cabinet.

 

[Kendog 170]

I got mine and they look the same. Doesn't say race filter and no R at the end of the number.

 

[66Valiant528]

On the link it says Wix Racing filter.

On the link it says Wix Racing filter.

In the item details, the part number is for the standard 51515 filter.

Perfect.

 

[oldkimmer]

Perfect.

Does it say USA made on the box and the filter or is just the box USA made? Kim
