No combo valve ... can see the bypass valve in the dome end leaf spring like Fram uses - photos 9 and 10.ooo a blue ADBV
Wait, is that a combo valve? And it's still an Ecore? And that weird baseplate?
Hope so, and not a 6607 sized "compatible" one. I like the no combo valve on this vs the ST2.Wonder if they'll make a Fram 7317 size counterpart.

Definitely a Champ Labs filter.

The more I think about it though, I really would have a hard time picking this up @ $5.48 over a regular Fram orange can @ 3.88.
Silicone adbv?
THANK YOU for sacrificing that new filter.
They did, go back to the other guy's thread. There is a pic of a 7317Wonder if they'll make a Fram 7317 size counterpart.
...Didn't see a price listed. Other thread mentioned,~$5.50. Wondering if MP will replace ST line. Perhaps that means WM will have them better organized and more applications in stock. Locally, bottom shelf STs currently poor on both counts.

Thanks for c&p, answered some questions.

Apparently the powers that be think for extra ~$2.50 for MP series, 7317 deserves it's own app. Good move. Didn't see SAE thread equivalent 4386 in new pic though.
The other thread on the new ST filters has a picture of a 7317 so they probably got bugged enough to finally make one.Beyond blue adbv, what I see is pretty much what I expected. Hybrid type ecore, metal end caps and poppet bypass now used ST9688, and several others. As noted follows the ACDelco for GM filter design, all of them made by Champ Labs. No combo valve used on some STs (eg., popular 3614 last posted) though I saw mention of one on 10575 but wondered if that notation correct.
I too would speculate adbv, silicone. 'If' pattern follows ST line, there will be no 7317 application or 4386. Didn't see a price listed. Other thread mentioned,~$5.50. Wondering if MP will replace ST line. Perhaps that means WM will have them better organized and more applications in stock. Locally, bottom shelf STs currently poor on both counts.
Assuming all use poppet bypass, I'll call the MP line an improvement over ST line. Worth ~$5.50? Worth it if ST~$3, unlikely I'd think. As I can obtain Napa Gold for ~$4 twice a year, no effect for me, especially if no 7317 application.
