Hughes" To: "Rotary motors in aircraft" I seem to remember that rotary's have destroy some brands of filters. What are the suggested brands and models we should be using? This could have been in the racing environment or I could be mistaken. =20 Bobby -----Original Message----- From: Rotary motors in aircraft [mailto:flyrotary@lancaironline.net] On Behalf Of Bob White Sent: Thursday, May 25, 2006 9:18 AM To: Rotary motors in aircraft Subject: [FlyRotary] Re: Wire tying oil filters Hi Bill, At least some of the K&N filters have holes in the "nut" on the bottom of the can that can be used to wire tie it. The hole can be seen in the close up photos of the K&N HP-3001 and HP-3002 on the Summit web site. The HP-3001 is a replacement for the PH8A. I'm not sure how long the PH8A is. You might want to look at the HP-2004 also. Bob W. On Thu, 25 May 2006 09:41:09 -0400 "Bill Bradburry" wrote: > How do you go about wire tying an automotive oil filter?
