Looks great! These are solid filters, I cut one last year from my Kubota B2620, with the D1105 engine. The ADBV was stiff on mine as well and wish they had a silicone since otherwise they are very heavy duty filters. My tractor is used for plowing snow and other year round chores, and I noticed on a cold start the oil light would stay on for a few seconds longer than with other filters. Would it cause damage? Probably not, but the light is out instantly with the Fram FE I have on it now.
