    not sure what filter those are but anything along the line of a fram hp6 is going to work. you dont want a filter that doesnt flow at least as much as the line you are feeding the engine with. keep in mind you will loose some flow through the cooler so my opinion is larger openings is better.

        JMO I wound not put a Fram on my lawn mower if you gave it to me. A lot of people might have good luck with them but Wix is the only choice IMO.

              Wix racing filters have heavier steel cans and a much more open/larger micron rating, flows better/ filters less than most other filters. jmho

                          The 51061R is smaller than the 51222R. 51061R/51060R is made for a 350 stock block chevy mounted in stock location. Flows 28gpm and rated at 61 micron. The thread on this is 13/16-16. The 51222R is common for a remote mounted filter on a dry sump system. The thread on this is 1 1/2 - 12. This is a "large" filter. To go from a Wix part # to a Napa part # on just about any filter, drop the "5".

                            We've used the 51222R and had zero issues with them.
