    What size oil filter for permacoolsandwich adapter

    What size oil filter do you use for your permacool (189) sandwich adapter? I have been using a PH16 which is shorter than a PH8A but I could really use something skinnier not so wide.

The gaskets cracked in the same place on both vehicles. I got a newer metal replacement gasket from...

    Using a Sandwich Adapter do you need a restrictor?

    I am adding a Frantz that I used to have on my transmission in my dodge truck that I drilled out the restrictor to whatever they said 1/4 inch if I recall. I now want to put it on my 2000 Jimmy for the motor oil with a sandwich adapter. Do I need to order a restrictor from wefilterit? Thanks.
