Do these filters make my block look small? Napa 1773. Each hold about 1 qt. I believe 18 micron rated and 30 psi BOV setting and high pressure GM bypass valve in block.. With the tighter filtration rating, I wanted to increase the surface area to mitigate the slower flow through the media.....then I doubled it. They operate in parallel. With running a thermostat, I have zero problems with oil temp. All 5/8" ID lines and Parker push-lock tubing.

I'm using the same double filter manifold.

Anyone using a Wix 51515 or Wix 51622. I am running a marine power remote oil filter setup and the place I bought it from recommends Fram HP1. Not a Fan of Fram and both these cross to the HP1. Any advice is appreciated. Motor is a stock merc so I dont need anything too fancy.
