hmmm...is that the one they talked about in nines?

 

Proabably, the elder of my bosses is involved with nines...to be honest, I don't know who makes these (it's not in house), but I know we have them on hand.

I saw that advertised over at TSN. Even if you don't have a T7 motor thats a good idea if you got major power running through your motor.

I havn't been on TSN forever...I'll check it out.

 

Wow.. that is an awesome idea right there.

yeah good idea

 

There was a car that had it at SOC this past year....he was parked right next to matt d and I.

 

Funny thing...that car has a cheap NAPA filter on it :lol: If I'm going to drop 200-300 on a new pan with a hole in it, then I've surly going to drop a few extra $$s on a SAAB/GM long-life filter!

 

JK, it was a while back. I primarily stay here but I hit all the forums to be honest..........I just like it here much more lol.

 

As of yesterday its in the tsn parts classifieds again.

 

:lol: to bad i just replaced the fucker with my last tranny swap... damn thing broke on me mid swap (i guess thats a good time to break and lose all of your oil!) I will do this next tranny swap and clutch swap i guess... i feel it coming on faster then i would like. :-?

 

I wonder if these are still available

 

I wish! Read about the guy who pioneered this and some other sludge improvements in some nines articles.

 

I don't see how these are actually that important. You drop the pan once, clean whats there, install PCV6 for peace of mind and change the oil with a quality synthetic regularly. Shouldn't ever sludge again.

 

"shouldn't" being the key word. But there is always a chance that there is residual particulate washed into the screen.

 

I only have my personal experiences to go by, but if the car truly sludges up again it has to come down to poor maintenance. Sludge doesn't just magically appear on a perfectly maintained car. Maybe if you saved a car on the brink of failure with a totally clogged screen, you could justify installing one of these to just check on it periodically after the initial cleaning.
