oil filter question

[chad8]

a friend bought a 2008 craftsman mower with a 24 hp intek and the black briggs filter. what can i use as the replacement. I think a fl400 ,a st or other 3600 or a 3614 with these specs They're all 3/4-16 thread, 2.734"/2.430"/0.226" gasket.
oem filter is a Oil Filter - 492932S
Used for pressure lubricated engines (most Intek™ and Vanguard™ OHV engines and selected L-head twin cylinder engines). Contains oil filter (492932S).

Is my thinking correct to use a fl400 as a replacement .

I've been using the 3614 on my 18 hp intek with no problems.

Wix filter for this application is 57035:

I also found this bit ... but I'd double check the specs before you buy any of these:

"Briggs type" 3/4" X 16 threads 8-11 PSI Bypass
Gasket 2.734"OD 2.430"ID 0.226" thick

3.4" 51348 L10241 LF157 5205002 491056 BT223 AM101207 ? FL793 PF53 PH3614

Sorry the spacing is kind of a mess. You might want to copy into Excel and parse it to get a proper cross-reference.

My buddy has the same LM and engine. I gave him a OEM Toyota 90915-YZZD3 filter from my V-6 Toyota Tacoma that I bought on sale for $2.99. It's a little longer but there was plenty of clearance. Worked just fine.

I use an FL400 (or equiv). Some even have the room for a ST8A.

Yep, and the nice thing is, the new filter is longer, so it sticks out further, making it easier to get at come change time!!
