Amsoil and Baldwin oil filter basicly the same?

[hillbilly]

I understand Clarcor Baldwin makes Amsoil oil filters. Just wondered if they are basicly the same inside. I can buy a case of Baldwins for $55-65. Amsoil filters are $12.99.

AMSOIL filters use Donaldson's SYNTEQ media process and are assembled by WIX.

Thanks, I must have old info!?

Clarcor did indeed make the previous generation of Amsoil filters. They would not say if the Amsoil labeled filters were identical to their Baldwin or Hastings labeled filters (which are identical), or to their lower cost/quality Casite brand filters.

Who is the other assembly party?

Donaldson actually makes some as well as supplying the media.

The Baldwin HPG filters are really good.

Here is the B243 that I just cut open. Solid, no nonsense filter.
