Consider the NapaGold 1045 Oil Filter (Wix 51045) it is smaller.

+2 for the Baldwin B39.
Slightly shorter than most of the others for additjonal header clearance, full flow, quickest repsonse on the gauge and you can block the bypass in the filter housing with no negatives anyplace........

The good news is Wix didn't discontinue the SBC tall truck filter. They still offer that filter, it's just the same size as the standard SBC filter. 🙄

rock auto shows lots of 51258 filters available. if they are really discontinued y'all better buy a bunch of them before they are gone.
There are lots of other standard size good filters that will fit pontiacs with headers... ive been using the mobil1 filter that fits with hedman D ports & big 2" O-port hooker super comps. |

Yikes, thanks for the heads-up. Just bought a case of 12 in case the rumor is true. That said, I'm still seeing them in stock at O'Reilly.

Yep, they're $4.81/ea on Rock Auto. Great deal. What's nuts is that they cost $12.99/ea at O'Reilly. Wild.
