| Seriously is this a joke? For an oil filter? I have a couple of these still sealed in plastic in my garage?

Nice return on investment if anyone actually buys one. There is another auction lot for $4,000!

Rob, you can paint over a regular B253 and put these stickers on. I’m not sure how well they’ll hold up to the heat over time, but certainly looks cool:

All,
They are the only filter to use in a Ferrari, that you can get one that fits. Long time listers remember the UFI oil
rubber gasket blowout drama. I still have one of those 25 year old 150$ I pulled from my inventory when they
were blowing off and have it on display at my house! I also bought one of these Chinetti ones for $$$$$$
but just for a display! HA
Enzo and old man Baldwin made friends and Baldwin said as long as he owned the company they would
make the oil filters for the Ferrari. I would not use anything else and when I see another on a Ferrari I wince….
They are the best made, strongest, least drain back, plus longtime Ferrari history, Peter uses
their air filter, I did not know they made one. Pete what is the part number? I never drive my car
off road, in the rain, dust, wind etc. and I just had my airbox off and the K&N looks new. I have
seen some conflicting reports on their hp/effectiveness but still might swap one out for the $$$
ufi air filter I took out! HA I want to believe! HAA

Any thoughts on Baldwin oil filters? I still have a few from my 328 days I never used....

This is correct from research I did several years ago. I take a hard pass on K&N air filters. At the time I was digging, the AC Delco air filters seemed to perform best. Decent air flow when new, good filtration and less of a drop in flow as they got dirty.
Oil filters are a different story and are constantly evolving. Mobil 1, Bosch Extended Performance and Royal Purple are all pretty good with RP probably being the best.
For oils I have long been a big fan of Redline.
I recall in testing I was involved in on BMW M30 6 cylinder engines the K&N drop is filters were awful in every respect. They had a fraction of the surface area of the MANN or other OEM equivalent and once they got a bit dirty restricted airflow to the point where the engine would stumble on part throttle acceleration. They were great when clean as far as airflow but the reduced area made the inefficient once they got slightly dirty and on a street engine, I would rather have the filtration over a few CFM of airflow and have to clean the filter every month.

Hmmm
Had to read this twice – how could an oil filter make a HP difference?
Ahhh – K&N “air” and oiled air filter. OK
Do you think it caught more dirt? Make the engine last longer?
Just wondering . . .

When I had my 85 with factory exhaust on a dyno in the late 90s the RWHP was around 190. FYI - I was testing out KN oil air filters vs Fram paper filters and found KN decreased HP by approximately 5hp…..
