FORUM RULES: Users agree to these Rules when using Forum.

The site administrator reserves the right to change the terms and conditions of the user agreement without prior notice to the user. It is the responsibility of the user to regularly review the terms of this agreement.

The user agrees to the following terms:

All information that you provide to us for your membership is correct.
You will not use your membership to spam, harrass, or exploit other members in any way.
Vulgar, Abusive, Racist and Sexist Language will not be tolerated.
Commercial-type sales postings will not be allowed.
No mass posting or flooding of the boards is allowed.
No Advertising of parts or cars; no Ebay or business/commercial ads (please use the "Classified" for ads Wanted or For Sale).
VIEWING MULTIPLE TOPICS ON SCREEN: You can choose to see more than 10 Topics at a time ... Log In and choose "Preferences" from the top bar on the Forum page. Scroll down and Change the "Default Topics Returned" parameter to 25 or 50, and save the changes. Since this setting is stored in your browser 'cookies' (if enabled), it seems to use that stored value even if you are not logged in. So, if you use a PC that you haven't logged into the forum from, the setting still seem to remain at the default.
EXTERNAL PHOTO LINKS ON FORUM: You can still use external photo links in your posts on the new forum. They follow the rules of any link in that they have to have the URL link qualified down to the full image file name (example: .jpg). The links will open in a new browser window, the same as an uploaded image attached to a post. Since an image attachment to any post does not display inline with the post, the results are the same. You can use multiple external links within a post. This link is from photos on a site from Don Clink's 'Deuce@75' albums:

Using links from photo sites such as Photobucket can help in "size" issue with uploaded attachment files. For best viewing in web browsers, photos should be around the 800x600 pixel range, and probably not more than 1024x768. Most cameras today store HUGE jpg image files, as the default settings are in the 7, 8, 10, and 12Mb image sizes. The image files that are then attached are very large, and the browser can't display the full image size without using the scroll bars. Use the re-sizing functions of your photo editing software to reduce the image to 800x600, which reduces the file sixe and the image load time in the browser. Don uses Google's free Picassa3 software, which is an excellent photo management product. All of the photo albums of the Deuce, Grand National, and Auburn that are links on the NORG site were built using Picassa's web creation functions. And it's free? (THANKS to Don Clink for the info!)

If it is the stock Ford oil filter assembly, yes that would be the correct one.

Of course back in the good old days I think it was JC Whitney or maybe Sears that sold a gadget that you installed in the filter so you could forget the special cartridges and just use rolls of toilet paper.

For the European V8 fans ,you can ask for a MANN filter PF 1155. You can use it in a AC and a Fram canister.

I believe NAPA Gold filters are actually made by the
WIX filter division of Dana Corporation. If you don't
have a
NAPA store near you, many independent parts stores
carry WIX filters. The part number to fit the original
Fram housing is 51006. This filter fits quite a number
of industrial and agricultural engines; so is fairly
common.
Originally, these filter assemblies were made by Fram,
and used a Fram F4 cartridge. Like most contemporary
filters of the time, they used a metal perforated core
that was wrapped with "cotton waste". The modern
NAPA/WIX filters use a folded paper media identical to
the full-flow spin-on filters on your "main ride".
Even if you were able to "score" one of those 50's era
toilet paper kits, I wouldn't recommend using it. In
the fifties we had "John Wayne" toilet paper, which was
of course, "rough,tough & wouldn't take c*** off of
anything. The big thing in servicing these canisters
is to really clean the housing, after removing the
little metal "stool" in the bottom. There is a 1/4
inch drain plug in the bottom of most Fram canisters,
but the best way is to use a suction gun, and remove
all the oil, and carefully wipe out the housing. All
the "bad stuff" ends up in the bottom of the canister,
and sometimes you have to actually dig it out with a
screwdriver. The advent of detergent oils in the 50's
makes this less of a problem, as these oils tend to
keep the carbon deposits in suspension.

Stroker, you say that the Fram F4 is stuffed with cotton as opposed to the
modern folded paper type? I didn't know that, and have always used the
F4's.
