Spin on oil for 1955?

Was wondering if there is a spin on conversion for the 310 in the 1955 to replace the cloth filter? I just don't like that cloth filter and upside down to boot. I clean the canister good before loosening but it just seems like your mixing dirty oil when you lift off that cloth filter, I thought maybe there is a conversion out there to switch it over to a spin on. Thanks for any replies.

Thanks for all your replies, not sure if I will switch it or not if the sock type is still the better types of filtration, just thought the spin on would be less messy, and less chance of getting dust or dirt in the base when changing. Thanks again.

I have two 1655 Olivers diesels that I have converted to spin on filters. I used a gas engine filter base. You have to use a plain flat washer under the capscrew that goes into the oil gallery so it doesn't leak oil. If you want to use a larger filter like the Cummins Fleetguard LF3479 you have to change nipples. AGCO charges over $50 for this, so I had one made at a machine shop. I believe there is a conversion where you can use your present filter base also.

That almost sounds like a HAstings number with the LF in front. I always get Hastings fi,lters from the local auto store for my F150, an LF115.

Maybe I'll look it up on the Wix site...

To be honest, the sock style filter (depth type) is not all that bad of a filter as most people think. When I worked at Cummins, they were considered the "cadillacs" of filtration.

If you are buying Fleetguard filters, make sure you buy the ones with Stratapore...the extra cost is easily offset by the increase in filter efficiency. However, the best filter to run is the Fram Toughguard....as of late, very very few other filters can touch it's efficiency and they are not badly priced.

I don't know about the Fram Toughguards, but the regular Frams weren't rated very highly. Was wondering if there were some improvements made. Anyways, the Fleetguard is a good filter.
