As to where to purchase the CAT UHE filter online......probably easier to go to shop or dealer who sells CAT filters.....think my FF here locally was only $17.

I ordered 3 1R 0750 Cat for 20.00 each free shipping from alligator performance not bad not great for price but to save the 9.00 dollars I would have to drive 60 miles round trip. Even trying to save 15.00 not worth it.

I have been using the CAT 1R 0749 which is a longer version of the 0750. About 120,000 miles so far and on stock injectors no issues with that filtration which is good by me...

I have an under the intake fuel filter system and I run the Cat 1R-0749 filter. It's long, but fits under there with no problems. This is the same filter used on the big 18 wheeler trucks! I feel more comfortable with the quality of the cat filters.

Filters today are not rated any lower than 4 microns if they are using the latest multipass test standards. If they are claiming anything smaller, better ask them what rating system they are using as the 2 micron absolute (absolute = Beta 75) came to an end when AC fine test dust ceased to be used in testing back around 1999-2002. Even filters previously rated at 2 microns absolute by the old test dust such as 1R0750 have been rebadged to 4 micron. Bottom line, the filter probably didn't change but the test method did. I just wish the 364-5287 came in a version with 1-14 threads as well.

Just for grins, I talked with a guy with an 18 wheeler. His truck uses the Cat 1R-0749 fuel filter and the Cat 256-8753 fuel water separator. The maintenance shop changes all the filters at 13,000 miles. The hours between changes would have been useful as he said the truck hardly ever shuts off. When the truck goes in for maintenance, they change everything at one time. The oil,the fuel filters/etc. Then the truck back on the road making money. Anyway, he has over 780,000 miles on this truck.

You can go 30,000+ miles easily with the 0749 safely with regards to filtration. Just think how much more fuel that semi runs thru at 13k miles... Has to be at least triple our little 5.9's.
