HAVE A QUESTION FOR THE FORUM. HAS ANYONE USED OR HEARD ABOUT CHAMP OIL FILTER LFP2999. IT'S MANUFACTURED BY CHAMPION LABORATORIES OF WEST SALEM ILLINOIS.


MY FLEET MANAGER STATES HE USES THESE FILTERS ON OUR FLEET AND HAS NEVER HAD A PROBLEM. USES THEM IN HIS PERSONAL VEHICLES AND SAID THEY ARE MADE TO OEM SPEC.

If jbplock sees this, he might be able to get back in touch with the person he talked to at Champion Labs and find out for us. You might luck out and find out it is the same as the Mobil 1. See the other filter post in the link below.

I'm sure the Champ Labs LFP2999 is a very good filter but I would be surprised if it's the same as the Mobil-1 M1-303. Champion is the OEM for many brands of filters inlcuding the Mobil-1, AC Delco and LEE. To find out more about the LFP2999 you could try calling the 800 number listed on the www.champlabs.com (http://www.champlabs.com) website. The fellow I talked with was Brent Birch ...he was very helpful...

I can't find the specs on that filter but the Baldwin cross reference came back with a B1441 filter. So, it will probably work OK on a DMAX.


Here's the Baldwin cross reference info.
