Looking to get specific part numbers on the filter adapters for each model Olds.

From the 350's up to the 455's.

The filter adapter is all the same for 350 and 455...assuming you are talking about the aluminum adapter that bolts to the block that the filter screws on to for the A-body cars.

 

I believe there are 3 versions.

I will see if i can find where i hid my spares.

 

Uh, RWD V8, FWD V8, and diesel? Actually, I guess there would be two diesel versions, one for RWD and one for FWD, so that would be at least four. By the way, the diesel versions have fittings for plumbing an external oil cooler.

 

Joe im with you .... for sure 2 versions for gas. Never thought about 2 different versions for diesel. I dont think i have a fwd gas version around.

I do have this diesel one, im guessing if there is 2 diesel versions this is the rwd.

Funny it was never drilled for the cooler.

Part number is 25010746

The "In" and "Out" are for the cooler, are they not drilled on the side?

 

I know they are for a cooler, for a diesel.

As i said , funny they were never drilled.

And ..... they are not all the same.

Joe, im beginning to wonder if mine is the diesel fwd. Link above shows a much longer version.

I just double checked the adapter, it lines up to the block. I was beginning to wonder.

 

Still need the part numbers if possible.

Don't need for the diesel, only the gas.

I have one here I'm trying to ID, number is 4638195?? Not sure of application.

Any help is appreciated

Pete,

I would assume that the Toro diesel adapters would have the same angle as the gas engine ones, which is different from the RWD adapters to clear the passenger side starter on the Toro. I'm also interested in the two different lengths of the diesel adapters. I wonder if the ones used in the Chevy truck applications were different for some reason?

Also, let's not forget the diesel V6, which was used in both RWD and FWD transverse applications. I don't recall if the V6 used a separate oil filter adapter or not - I have this hazy recollection that the oil filter pad was integral to the block on those engines, but I really don't remember.

 

OK, an update. The FWD version of the V6 diesel DID use an integral oil filter mount as seen in this photo. Of course, that version also used the GM metric bellhousing bolt pattern. Don't know about the RWD versions, however.

 

GOOD info as always; good to know stuff! I'm looking to put a Spin-On adapter onto my '55 Super 88; it SHOULD be the same as the one for the '56s right?

 

Part number 6438195

Joe, i need to get my hands on the "other" diesel adapter and compare it to what i have. I am really beginning to wonder. I did a google on the part number but no luck.

Did you just happen to have a V6 diesel hanging around?

 

No, I stole that photo off the web (from someone who had swapped it into a Fiero!!!). I've only seen two V6 diesel cars in my life, both RWD G-bodies.

 

Hi Pete, do you know what model that fits??

Someone also gave me a picture of a #5579410?? Looks similar to your's in photo.

Hi, I happen ta have two ungreased items here in my garage. Dont ask why

The one with the oil cooler outlets have a number:25010482 and the other one is marked with a Ink pen "Toronado". I dont know What they came from. I´m planning to use the oil cooler one in a future projekt.

Regards

Stanley

 

As it should. The Toro oil filter adapter relocates the filter to clear the passenger side starter on those cars.

 

I put it side by side with a 330 that was from a 64 Cutlass and also a 425 from some big car.

The castings have very slight differences in them but the size is the same.

I would believe this is the std gas / non-toro adapter.


Joe, other pics of the diesel adapter have some sort of large fitting opposite where the cooler lines connect. The adapter i have does not have that fitting. ??????
