I know that is not a Fram oil filter screwed on the side of that engine maybe its just to keep bugs & stuff from crawling up in the hole untill its ready to ride.

Realy though, always had a spot for those ol Ford pickups like that

Easy now, lol That was on it when I bought and I have since changed it. Although I have never had any issues with fram in the past but that's another thread.

The L&L ones look pretty sweet too.

Might not be anything on a plain stock engine, but bunch of hot rod guys got some horror storys with them comming apart on the inside.

Who knows, could be some of that cross the pond junk, we buying it & dont know it but it looks the same.

I hope so, don't need it doing that in my truck or any of our other vehicles a matter of fact. Guess it doesn't matter though, I starting to use Mobil1 now.

Just looking at that line, looks more brass than copper because of the brightness, but I would suspect its a pre-bent steel line with cadium coating for a yellow look.

Thats just wrong of 73F350 puttin that pic up, make everybody slober looking at it like that.

L&L makes a shorty header and a long tube for inside the frame. I don't know if the long tubes have the room to clear the married transfer case. Most headers dump the drivers side header right into the transfer case forcing a tight 90 deg bend to get over to the passenger side. If you have a body lift, sometimes this isn't an issue.
