Too bad that the guy that started that filter "study" never finished it. He quit working on it sometime around 2000. It used to be referred to as the MiniMopar study, as that's where it was hosted early-on.

Each time I see it referenced, I'm always a sucker to go see if he's added anything to it. He hasn't.

The Venturi filter interest me also. This filter design has been around for a while. many heavy duty diesel engines use them now and have for many years so the design is tested. The filter is probably physically bigger than a stock filter which in our application is fine. it will be longer and we have plenty of room to go down with a filter. And fleetguard make great filters and the price isn't bad either.

Fram threatened to sue him so he toned it down a bit. Maybe he just lost interest after that.

That's why he separated out his "comments" to a different site from the "findings".

He still didn't cut Fram much slack.
