Anybody heard of using a FL910 oil filter on a 302? I have a turbo setup on my '86, and I can't run the FL1A. I was browsing through oil filters and I came across the FL910 which is for the escape. Its tiny, but has the same thread and same seal as the FL1A. Clears my turbo manifold perfectly. I can use the FL300 which is for the cobra or police vehicles, but it BARELY clears. The FL910 would be perfect.

I bought one and put it on and started it up. Everything seemed fine but I want to check to see if there could be any problems. I've heard of horror stories of people running the wrong filter and dropping oil pressure.

What do you guys think?

If it goes on and seals, it won't cause any problems.
