Vintage MG Parts CNC this item in standard specification if requested. Approximately 2 years ago, we adapted the original design to accommodate a modern filter cartridge instead of the old felt cartridge which is now an obsolete item and difficult to source. New replacement paper filter element cartridges provide far superior oil filtration and when replacing are readily available. We sell these replacement cartridges at cost price as another unbeatable service offered to our customers.

The modern replacement filter cartridge is seated on a separate, specially machined platform which attaches to the bottom of the cartridge and aligns with the filter housing. This product has been CNC machined to accommodate either a Fram CH4747, Mann H614x or Coopers G586 cartridge. This product is another example of where Vintage MG Parts has raised the standards of production whereby we offer the full kit with casting permanently in stock.

The oil delivery system on the J4 engine looks untidy and it should be noted that the image showing the blue engine below shows modified pipe work whereby we have incorporated the oil feed running from the block as opposed to an external source. Our filters are however, supplied to take standard oil feed supplies unless requested otherwise.

The first few of our initial batch of filters were for use by Vintage MG Parts and by specialist MMM engine builder, Slough Grinding Services to fit on specially prepared engines. Information on this modification is available through Slough Grinding Services for whom these filters were prepared for.

We can have the filter CNC machined to your desired specification. We have previously offered the pressure relief valve, where we slightly modified the original design to fit with the Fram CH4747 filter cartridge but as engine oil filters are nor routinely replaced, we found that there was no demand for this product. We can specially machine on request.

Cast in LM26 and double vacuum impregnated.
