Two Mobil 1 M1-110A filters. Different sizes

Made in the former Purolator factory currently owned by Mann+Hummel.

I know, there have been reports here of these new Mobil1 filters having classic burralator construction issues, where the tapping plate cuts a hole through the ADBV

Hello, all, I bought the short one in February 2020 and the tall one in July 2020, both from Walmart.

The short one is 3 5/16" and 211 grams and the tall one is 3 1/2" tall and 261 grams.

Both are made in the USA, and the only difference in the packaging is the taller one specifies a steel inner core and the shorter one does not.

Did Mobil 1 recently make improvements to this filter or is it common to see these types of variances from time to time?

What does the torpedo show?

Call it a straight edge, then you'd know.

The crimps holding the gasket on the tall one say Wix/MH to me
