V8 Oil Filter (David Brown)

All

I have read in a number of posts about the V8 oil filter produced by David Brown.

A number of people have correctly identified in different threads the web site is down and he appeared to have disappeared; unfortunately he has had some health issues, but the good news is that I have spoken to him today and he is still producing the filters. You can contact him at the following email address [e-mail]

Please spread the word.

Cheers

Can you repeat that

It's important to note these filters are longer than the standard one and won't fit some cars, others it will just fit with a few mm clearance to chassis and some you'll need to lift engine to get filter onto threads and keep engine as high as possible. I've got one that I couldn't get on without lifting engine so used a different filter for now. My next oil change I might try to test fit this filter and lower engine back into position but if the clearance is less than 5 mm I won't use it.
Great filters though so if you can make it fit a very good addition and can only help engine and oil life/ longevity.

I've got three of these filters going spare as they're little to long for my Chimera since I fitted new SC-Power engine mounts.

PM me if you're interested.

Good to hear that he's still producing those. Many thanks for the email.
