| Post subject: | smaller oil filter |
i am currently running the standard Z172 filter on my 91 sierra but am going to install an oil filter sandwich plate so i can run some gauges my question is since the plate is a little under 1in thick i'm going to need to run a smaller filter as it will more than likely hit the engine mount i've read a Z418 filter has the same thread and is smaller but are there any complications with running a smaller filter? |

cool good news do you run a sandwich plate or is there another reason you run the smaller filter? |

I run the 418 on my vit, its the standard fitment on a baleno, and so much easier to get a hold of. |

i was running the 1.3 which had no need for it really, was just easier to get at the time i think... now running 1.6 its standard fitment on that so yeah. |

i think from memory the z418 is used in newer model suzuki's for clearance reason (if not i know there is a squatter shaped filter that is listed as compatible for late model suzuki's ) If you change your oil regularly it shouldn't be an issue Have you checked to see if the z172 actually hits? Just unscrew your existing one and test fit. a v8 Z9 filter fits and its freakin huge. |

The 418 is standard fitment on v6 prados, so id think it has the capacity required |

Hmmmmm, any reason you need a sandwich plate to run gauges? You can but t-adapters that screw into the oil pressure switch port on the block. |

there's also two oil gallery ports side by side on the G-series block that you can screw oil gauges into and still run the factory pressure switch |
