Spin -on oil filter of choice

Sounds like the Canton Mecca.

Thanks for the reply...looking at replacing my older Jaycee filter. Choices seem to be Speedflo, Canton or conventional good quality spin on like K&N etc

I like the idea of inspecting the filter element...without having to cut the filter open.

Could someone explain the advantages/disadvantages of filters with and without the bypass valve ? thanks

No bypass valve means it filter 100% of the oil, 100% of the time.

The bypass valve is a safety valve so the filter doesn't explode.

I thought is was to make sure the engine always had oil?

"Why did Jaycee discontinue the billet racing filter ? Is it because the mesh is almost impossible to get totally clean (as posted earlier) hence why the new speedflow has the throwaway element ?"

Jack was unable to source the original filters so we decided to start from scratch and build it exactly the way we wanted, one improvement was the ability to use a smaller micron, disposable element as well as the anti back flow valve and easy to access removeable cap. 
 
 

Can you put the new disposable element that is is used in the latest speedflow filter in the older JayCee filter with the "cleanable" element? That would be nice because then those of us who have an older JayCee filter with the cleanable element wouldn't have to buy a whole new filter.

I got Jim @ stateside tuning to pick me up one and 6 spare elements last time he was in the states.  Give him a bell, he might be able to get more.

Hi Ash

Someone bought them back from the US for me with a load of cartridges.

Beware- the Canton filter is longer than most reuseable items and may require re siteing.
