Marine oil filter versus auto oil filter, any difference?
I cross reference this one over and it says Fram PH 30. Is the marine filter any different than a auto filter?[ATTACH=CONFIG]511685[/ATTACH]

Regular Fram's suck. The Fram racing/HP are much better.
I would(I do) use a Mobil1 (M1-302) or Wix filter.

Cut a fram open and you will change your mind, I have been cutting oils filters open for over 20 years and fram has never changed, still cheap. Go with Amsoil or Mobil 1 or K&N or Baldwin or Wix, Also there is a link if I can find it will show some of the quality of Napa, fram, K&N, Baldwin, Wix or ( google ) " youtube fram sucks" and see for yourself.
Also that Sierra one is not that bad to use either for stock apps. We use Mallory Marine oil filters as Wix makes them for Mallory. All of Mallory Marine products might just come to an end as Sierra ( Sea Star Solutions) just bought them out. That sucks for the marine business who buy aftermarket parts.

Ok I must be a real lucky guy, Have only used Fram HP-4 filters for 40+ years.. 454 flatbottom Sanger drag boat, reved the Pi$$ out of that boat. 20, 25,28 checkmates, blowers, NOS, Meth/Water injected, ran the Pl$$ out of them and never had a lower end problem! Don't see a reason to change now, this Dog is to old to learn any new tricks. I'll take my chances!
