Replacement for oil bath filter Hello all,
This is for a 1941 Ford Super Deluxe with a single Holley 94. What are the best options for replacing the stock oil bath filter with a paper element filter. This is intended to be a reliable driver and not a show car. Thanks in advance! |
Re: Replacement for oil bath filter Why not the reliable renewable efficient oil bath

Re: Replacement for oil bath filter Although this is not a '41 oil bath the same method can be applied.
Filter sizes to fit your application can be looked up here----- https://www.knfilters.com/search/univ2.aspx?id=S0001 https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/pictu...ictureid=40590 https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/pictu...ictureid=40588 https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/pictu...ictureid=40587 https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/pictu...ictureid=40586 |
Re: Replacement for oil bath filter A oil bath will have a much higher particle capture rate than a K&N, but you still have the same maintance just more often with the K&N( clean out the dirty oil, add new oil

This was my solution to put a 10 inch air cleaner on my flathead. I had a
crusty oil bath air cleaner that was on a 39 engine. I cut the bottom out of it and then matched it to a new air cleaner ($25 from O'Rileys) The bottom hole is set up for a 4 barrel. Then tacked the two together and now you have an air cleaner that will fit perfectly. Fram makes a 2 3/4 inch filter that I used. This will flow plenty of air. |
Re: Replacement for oil bath filter I'm fine with the old original oil bath air cleaner on the 52 merc although it looks like a very small opening for the air to pass through. I've test run it with and without the air cleaner and it might be my imagination but it seemed to have more power without the air cleaner.
