Guys,

I have an IO-320- D1A engine in my plane with what looks like a typical Piper style air filter. The housing looks like a banjo. The air filter is a Fram CA144PL filter element and is very expensive when puchased through the local aircraft supply house.

I use to work for Canadian Fram and had a buddy do a cross reference for me. It turns out that this filter was originally developed for the 1958 Desoto. The equivalent automotive filter is about $13.00 and available from many suppliers.

Best regards,

Jim Mantyla
