The Summit P/N is TRD-1028. It is for Ford style filters. I use the

K&N 10

micron absolute, 16 GPM at 80 PSI, and it has a 550 PSI burst

strength. No part

number just the name "Performance Gold filter." to fit the remote

mount. Both

on page 145 of the December catalogue. Before you install the filter

mount,

clean off all of the sharp edges inside the thing. Summit is at

1-800-230-3030

Lynn;
Do I read that as 80 psi drop across the filter at 16 gpm??  That's
huge.  On my dyno runs we measured 14 gpm at 6000 rpm.

Speaking of that remote filter mount. This is an Earl's 1/2 NPT to
dash eight right angle swivel adapter. Notice the difference in the

ID's. You pay for

art :) I have not figured out exactly why just yet. I recommend the

regular

non swivel part as it is much cheaper and it does not restrict the oil
flow like this one does.

I have noted in the past that there are differences in the ID for the
same size adaptor fittings from Aeroquip and Earl's, but it is not
consistent, sometimes Aeroquip ID is larger sometimes Earl's are larger.
I think there may be two grades for different pressure regimes that get
mixed up.  Either case is for pressures way beyond our usual needs in
fuel and oil systems, so there is no problem drilling them out.
