Minispares have recently re-introduced below what they say is an equivalent to the old 'Unipart GFE21 oil filter' that some may remember.

MINSPARES PREMIUM OIL FILTER SPIN ON 1973-1996 NOT MPI
MSF21 - "Upgraded High Tec spin on filter for 1973-1996 cars, this uses an upgraded filter paper compared to standard filters to improve filtration, as per the old sought after Unipart GFE21 filters."

I think they may have recently changed filter supplier for all their filters. That may be why they could reintroduce them.

Just curious but is there any material difference in the performance of branded filters on the market? If you change oil and filter frequently will you see any benefit from a more expensive option?

There are differences between filters. https://youtu.be/CnK...--no-t1N2rADZ9y

 

If it actually matters is another question.
