NAPA ProSelect Filter

[Cristobal]

Hi All:

Two years ago I got this NAPA ProSelect filter, a series 21348, from the NAPA store up in Lebec, CA. It was made in Mexico and is white in color. I think this will be the filter installed on The Beast at the next oil change. There are others in the stash, but this will be next. I know it has a good reputation. I reckon it can do about 7500 miles or so.

There are no marks on it to say when it was made, but I am guessing about five years ago. Does NAPA still make these or did they change the name? I am just curious.

Thanks.

I believe those have the combo ADBV/bypass valve ... ??

By the way, anyone think this filter can go for 10,000 miles?

It is NOT an overside filter. It has the same dimensions as the Fram PH3614 which is the basal filter size for this car. If it were as long as a Fram PH3600 it would have more room in the filter media.

Napa still makes these. They did not change the name.

Yep they make all these.
21348= Pro Select
31348= NAPA Silver
41348= NAPA Platinum
1348 = NAPA Gold

As long as the engine isn't full of sludge, I think any filter will go 10,000 miles.

I wouldnt use any wix filter with a combo valve - the worst Ive used.

Not sure if that's really a "ProSelect". It's some unique "double ADBV" setup.

^ Oh yeah thanks.... mind must have been in OD from a mega coffee dump down the pipe.

Yeah the first link is a Napa Gold but there are several Pro Selects cut on here. Seems like there were complaints about brittle/fragile media in the past but have not heard those lately.
