I cut a white Purolator up. Bit over 5k

Based on how the date code looks to be stamped on the filter, instead of the spray on dot matrix thing I've seen on my own filters and all the recent ones on here, I'm wondering whether this filter is actually from 1997 (G in the date code could also mean that).

Classics get the date code on the side of the can, in red, like the OP's filter.

P1's and synthetics get the black dot matrix on the top, This is probably because the stamping/ink/paint might not adhere properly to the textured grip spray on those filters.

In addition, the Purolator Classic name is relatively new. If it was from 1997 it would say Premium Plus, or the part number might start with PER instead of L.
 
^good idea, I'm sure it would be torn after that.
I just pray and hope I can get a torn one someday so I can be a part of the puro hater club. I have several in my stash as well as mann. But I got funny feeling I won't get one to tear. This makes me so very sad hahahehehehahaha

That could be a little far fetched.

Is that your conclusion after all the evidence is weighed?
