oil filter 1965 327

[Rick Hendel]

I just purchased a 1965 with a 327-300hp. The car has sittng for a long time. The original oil canister was replaced with a spin on filter. The spin on filter is some off brand that I can't identify. Can anyone tell me the correct AC spin on filter to use. Thanks

I converted my 1965 Corvette 250HP to a "spin off" in 1966 (AC kit). I have always used the AC PF35 filter. Yes, I did keep the origional parts.

------Somewhere in my memory it seems to me that at least one of the conversions to spin-on filters used a Ford style filter. Anyone familiar with that? You will have to come up with the correct configuration filter and then cross-reference it with AC if you arent going to go back to a canister style. It really wouldnt cost you that much to take it back to original,and I have found canister style oil-filters to be perfectly reliable...........Bill S

I've had a spin-on conversion on my 65 327/300 for the past 17 years. While a PF25 is what the conversion adapter reads, the PF35 works as well,holds a little more oil, and has a little more filtration surface.

Good luck!

Or for a little more oil capacity, PF-932 works well. 2 qt. truck filter. Have used it in place of PF 25 and PF 35 on everything that I drive.
