" the oil filters for all engines are the spin on cartridge type,ac brand,modelpf-25.original filters "
...Sorta interesting point... but I didn't say these were 35 year old date coded or detailed the way SOME were... I'm not saying they were/are 1970-72 original color stripped or tagged/ coded or NOS from that era etc..
    About a year back GM (USA) STOPPED supplying PF 25 oil filters.. they changed part #'s all together (not PF 35 either)  .. although correct in service.. they carry the new series tags and carry the NEW #'s.
   
    Dark Blue NOS service labeled "PF 25"'s are currently going on ebay USA  now for  US$20-$35 inc delivery in the USA.. if anybody wants to look at them.. and white filters go there too for alot more etc etc  NO DISPUTE THERE AT ALL.
  You'd REALLY want to know your product packaging SO well.. to be able to say what is correct from what year and what motor/plant/ service era etc..
Heres SOME...

     I'm not offering them to everybody - we don't have enough and I also want many for my own cars too.. ....   to be honest.. just wanted to make contact with the  member who contacted me in a specific way etc..  as per the forum entry.... from memory they ran a mid 80's vette. The person was polite and needing help - specifically asked for this filter color and label... and So.. I'm trying to help him.;34

..... heres whatsCLAIMED to be a '59 thru 71 GM filter..  for those that might need one or have not seen them. Does not have raised stamped lettering. Guess it would cost about A$40 if delivered somewhere in the USA. Mind you I know the early chevy's used the cartridge style filter.. so don't trust the dates.
      Has anybody got a link to the FULL "VISUAL"  RANGE of CORRECT for model.. GM  oil filters...- big block/ Small block, Chev, Pontiac/buick/olds/caddy etc ....??
