I figure greater filtration surface area has to be better, Cheers Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79748-will-a-z9-ryco-oil-filter-fit/#findComment-1223516 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impellor Member 835 Member For: 14y 9m 25d Gender: Not Telling Posted 17/04/12 01:29 AM Author Share Posted 17/04/12 01:29 AM Yeah no joy Z9 is 3/4 inch (approx 19mm) Z516 is 22mm opening diameter. I went through the whole Ryco range looking at bigger filters and not one of them is 22mm, Cheers Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79748-will-a-z9-ryco-oil-filter-fit/#findComment-1223553 Share on other sites More sharing options...
