Hello,

Looks like Kelly, Tempest, and Champion all make -108 filters for my O-320- D1A. Any opinions which is best? Best place to buy them?

Thanks!
 
I use Kelly

I used to use Champion...switched to Kelly a couple of years ago and haven't looked back. Here are some photos comparing the two:

The Kelly filter element doesn't have as many pleats as the Champion. It's definitely not as "nice" as the Champion. Do I think it makes a bit of difference? Not in my case. I change oil & filter frequently enough that I don't think it matters. As I said, I use Kelly.

Dan,
Is that filter full of metal or just my imagination????
Good Luck,

It sure looks like it, the way the flash reflects off the oil, but there wasn't any metal in there.
