Wasn't there another similar type holder made at one time or maybe still is -- possibly for another year or engine -- where the canister unscrewed in the middle to change the element?


The kit sold by one of the CCCA regions for the Purolator L6 and L8 included a set of matched threaded rings which you soldered in place after you cut the original housing at the center. Also the Burr Ripley L6 and L8 repro unit, while it did not thread apart at the center, did separate at the center to install a new cartridge. The R&A L6 and L8 unit doesn't separate at the center, but uses the same principle as the others.
