Yeah, the only reason a guy would ever keep a canister is to look authentic.
I feel so let down now If anybody wants to sell me their unused cartridges, I'll buy 'em.

Scroll down to 24061 and click on it. I would think many jobber stores would handle it.
I just found out what 5 litres of oil looks like on my garage floor using one of those WIX adapters! Problem is that the gasket wont seat correctly in my 1957 block.
I used the Wix unit because it uses the Chevy spin on filter while the Fram one (which I also have on another car and it does not leak) uses the Ford filter.
About a week into owning my 67, I simply walked up to my local Carquest counter and asked for one.
They got it for me in a day, and it worked fine on my 67 small journal 327. I took the car through my local quick lube and they installed it, changed the oil, added a spin on filter.
I can remove it and send it to you for the cost of shipping if you'd like.

Have one sitting in the box in the garage. Have had it for about 4 years and never seem to get around to installing it. Which doesn't make much sense because the spin on filters are about $6 and the drop in cartridge is about $14.
Paul was from this site in 2012 ... this is one of his old posts (2011).

Like I said, If anybody wants to sell me their unused cartridges cheap, I'll buy 'em.
