Oil filter for 69 L78 Camaro?
 
Probably a real dumb question but can someone pls tell me what is the correct original oil filter used on a 69 L78 Camaro?

I believe there is evidence that the early assembly line oil filter would have been a PF29 that was replaced early on with a PF25 that had an unpainted lip, was silk screened with blue and red lettering and had an embossed base.

Ok. Sam says that we have all the fun in Chicago. But it seems to me that you guys are catching up to us. I'm starting to get jealous. Well, make that more jealous. Cool that you guys get to hang out. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Bruce, ask Ken where he is writing from right now....he may be suffering, but it is more likely from sunburn than windburn.....

So Denis, did you get the PF29 that ended yesterday on e-bay ?? If not, the same guy will have another one on in a month or so. You might just e-mail him if you weren't the high bidder. As for price range, I've seen NOS go from $40 to over $400.00 for a single PF29. Happy hunting.... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/shocked.gif

Hi John.

No, I haven't pulled the trigger yet. What is the auction # you are referring to?

John Brown 12-09-2006 12:04 AM

Re: Oil filter for 69 L78 Camaro?
 
It ended but I'm betting he's got some more stashed away. It's worth a try....

Nice, but I doubt my car (being last week of February-built) would have had the PF-29.

What do you think of this one?

Re: Oil filter for 69 L78 Camaro?
 
The PF29 is very close to being released as a reproduction. I spoke to the person responsible for it recently. He told me that although it is visually accurate (especially on the car), it is slightly shorter than the original. As I know most of you are aware, the PF29 is considerably taller than the PF25.

Regards,

Mark

The guy in front of the sand trap was my caddy. He would go ahead on each hole to watch where I hit it....Not that I didn't hit it anywhere but straight down the middle..Ok OK...maybe most were a little off line....

Re: Oil filter for 69 L78 Camaro?
 
Well...did you get CLOSE to hitting him? LOL https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif
