I am using a Oberg Oil Filter. The Oberg filter is used in race cars =20 because you can look at it and see if there is any metal in the oil =20 after the race. I suspect that it is not quite as good as a standard =20 replaceable filter. The good news is that you never have to replace the =20= filter screen and it contains a metal in the oil detector which sets =20 off an alarm in the cockpit if metal is detected in the oil. The =20 standard metal screen is 25 microns which stops pretty small particles =20= in the oil. If you desire, you can also get 115, 60, 45, 10 or 5 micron =20= filter screens. My filter came with an STC for the Lancair 320. It is a quality filter. My filter is mounted on the left side on the engine mount. If you are =20= interested I will take pictures. After 850 hours on my plane, I am very happy with never having to buy a =20= new oil filter. You can purchase the Oberg Oil Filter from the Aviation Development =20 Corporation at: http://www.aviationdevelopment.com/ or see the filter at: http://www.aviationdevelopment.com/cgi-local/SoftCart.100.exe/online-=20 store/scstore/p-600010-1d.html?L+scstore+peen0919+1079540089 And no, I don't own any stock in the company. -- Lorn H.
