Correct 1981 Oil filter and battery?

Patnessyo · 05-06-2005, 01:38 AM

I have entered my 2,000 mile 1981 for Survivor/Gold/Benchmark at Bloomington this year. I am looking for the correct battery (Restoration battery did not have one) and also a oil filter with the correct markings.
Thanks!!

You're not the only one. Platato has been trying for ages. Good luck!

Have you tried Paragon Reproductions for the oil filter?

Corvette Central has a "blue correct length PF25" oil filter. I seem to recall that they also have a PF25 that is painted white. Not sure which filter is correct for the 81.
Good luck,
Tom

How could I have possibly missed this posting! Here's a couple of pics for you. Battery pic #1 is the original battery #695 the big pic is a correct replacement. When you get a moment drop me an email with where your at with your project, You'd be amazed at what help I can be with the 81 and what trinkets I might have laying around

STW! Platato
