Oil filter flow tests - pretty interesting link.

Below is a pretty interesting link about the flow rate of different oil filters started by Bob The Oil Guy -

Would like to see how the Fleetguards stacks up... .

Interesting, but a long read.

That's an interesting website.



Interesting enough everybody pretty much agrees that the BEST oil filter money can buy is the Fleetguard Stratopore or Donaldson Endurance filter.

I had a Fleetguard, Baldwin and Napa Gold filters side-by-side and the Fleetguard was clearly the best of them. The holes were considerably larger on the Fleetguard.

Do they have a flow restriction (simulated engine) to limit flow (GPH) to normal levels? They may be trying to flow too much oil if the return line (where the engine would normally be) is open back to the bucket. Too much to read at once.
