For comparison, the B&S equivalent filter element posted

here. That Wix uses traditional thread end bypass and bigger element.
I use the
Napa Gold 1348 for my Kohler engine application. The OP may not have room for the longer application though.
Thanks for c&p.
You are right Sayjac, I don't have room for the taller 51348. This tractor has side covers over the engine that kind of restrict what filter i can use.
I actually found an in between size, but cant remember the part number. I am running the Amsoil equivalent right now, and will post pics when that gets changed in the spring.
