Fram hp6a racing filter c&p

[Coaster4534]

This filter is huge and heavy, seems well constructed. Made in china. Can is around. 03" thick.

As pointed out in the other thread, uses a gasket between the leaf spring and end cap ... even though the leaf spring is stamped smooth.

That’s a heck of a well built filter. Love screen over leaf spring like my ancient tough guard 4967’s had.

Nice work sir, I Thank You

Not actually knowing what a Cessna oil filter looks like...that's what I would expect one to look like, or at least something just as robust. Not sure how the Champion aero filters compare to this puppy, but I know they've been disassembled here.

QUESTION: Other than cost, what would be the drawbacks to using this filter on a street car? I assume it's biased towards flow more than micron filtration.

It does both pretty well. The efficiency is 94% @ 20u (not bad). Info from @Motorking who worked for Fram and help develop the Fram Racing oil filter.

The HP17 does have a bypass. The HP6 flows 22gpm. That said, we have flow cover very well. We race a SIN supercar in the Pirelli world challenge, it uses a LS3 engine that flows 5.6 gpm at 7000rpm. Brian Deegans PRO2 off road race truck uses the HP6 and his 1000hp engine still only flows 11gpm at 7500 rpm.

The racing use only is being removed from the box. They are very well suited for up to 6k OCI's on street cars. 94%@20 microns, far better than any racing filter on the market

Getting close to 3 lbs.
That black seal or gasket looks like it may be starting to flake so that screen is good to have.
