Hi,

I've recently fitted a spin-on kit onto my 3000, the one that goes straight
onto the block.

Which filters do you guys use? My kit came with a Unipart GFE 166 (CB6). I
don't know what the CB6 means. 

I gather that the GFE 166 has been superseded by the GFE 443.

So far as I can see it does not have an anti-drain back valve and it seems
rather small for a 3 litre engine.

Ideally I'd like a longer filter with a valve and hopefully a hex on the end
for easier removal. Can't go wider or it will be into the starter motor.

Any ideas???

Thanks,

Simon
