OK guys,
time to quiz the all knowing fonts of knowledge on here about the sources of original MK.II bits again.
A huge thanks to mtrusty on here for sending some great photos of P1046 at Classic LM over, they are superb
This is an excerpt from one showing the fuel filter used on the Mk.IIA cars
Does anybody know the original manufacturer, or if it was a Ford item which model is was borrowed from?
By the way Mike that is an awesome looking car you have there!!

Yes it is a Fram, and would have originally had a glas bowl. Glass bowls aren't allowed for historic racing now, so you can buy alloy replacement bowls to fit them.
These are still available new.
I'm not clear on whether the glass bowl is allowable for a UK MoT or not though.
That looks exactly the same as the Fram one apart from the lettering on the top of the main body!! That has got to come from the same manufacturer or made under license. On the specs the Summit one will only handle 15psi where the Fram unit does 200psi (not much difference to a GT40 owner unless they injection I know).
Mine only cost $33 + shipping so not that bad It was NOS rather than from Fram but did come with a free filter element.
