12V Fleetguard Stratopore?

Is there a Fleetguard Stratopore for the 12V engines? Geno's don't list them for my 96?
Thanks

You might want to go under Haisley Machine.

I use the 24V one anyway.

You can use newer generation filters than your truck, just not the other way.

The 06? up filters are just fluted shells to aid in removal.

LF3894 (the 24V filter) works fine and its a Stratapore. Probably the best filter you will find for these engines.

I concur, been using them for a long time. If you have a Cummins dealer near you they might beat Geno's price.

LF3894 is the stratapore. I recently switched to a Wix 57620XE, which is 14 micron nominal. They're both good. Also search for Baldwins.

But the Stratapore is the only one that I know of that has the synthetic filter media. The rest have microglass or cellulose based filter media. Micron rating is not the sole determining factor of a good filter.
