I bought a box of filters from Summit Racing, and they all ended up being the V6 style.

I have like 10-15 oil filters here- all in OEM boxes, never opened. So I called them.

They wont take them back, I guess Ill sell em on here- Lol

Any ideas? Oil filter box fort? Lol

I'd call them and freak until they took them back. They're all 3600's then right? Bring them back to any local supplyer and see if they will accept it was a return.

Oh I tried that, "James" was a huge dick and laughed that "Man, it happens all the time, you kids and your 'fast cars' ordering the wrong stuff by not reading the descriptions. Dont you have any v6 Mustang friends you can give them to? I mean, we cant take a return on something like an oil filter..."

Yeah buddy, I know a couple Mustang guys- Ill see if they want them (MM)

This is why i NEVER order from summit. American muscle all the way. I have had nothing but great experiences with dealing with them. I refuse to deal with summit, and always advise people against them.

[4vGT]

Useful information. Yeah they are about 60/40 on parts and stuff for me, I get some really great orders, then some I open the box and go.... Oh.....no......

[1996 GT]

Summit is over priced, and never a good place imo. Like i said, american muscle! Oh and for filters, dont run fram! Motorcraft is oem and either the same price or cheaper.

Dont be dissin what Im steppin in foo! Lol

I have always ran them with good results- except for my dirt track car... Spun the element, starved oil, destroyed the cam and block...

For some stuff Summit has good prices. Others flat out suck. I do love how fast their shipping is though. When I order from them the parts are on my doorstep before other places even box theirs up.


Definitely go Motorcraft though. They were the same price as the Fram's at Rural King.

However, are you sure it's a different part number? I could have sworn in the book they had on the shelves at the store they listed all Mustangs as the same P/N.

No, the V6 uses a 3600 where the GT and Cobra use the TG,ph,hm 2

I got them to refund half the cost, so maybe Ill make a package deal, like $30 for 10-15 filters.

The only company worse then that is 4wheelparts. I waited on an intake for my 98 ranger for 7 MONTHS

Whoa. Piss on that.

Most stuff from Summit gets here in 2-3 days. Which is great for me seeing as most places take almost a week to ship, then another week in transit. Damn Harbor Freight took over 3 weeks to get me supplies!

Granted I only get general components/tools/supplies at summit, nothing model specific. I was pretty pleased with the TFS adjustable and Cloyes gears I got from them though.

Oh yeah I would have drenched them bastards in a stream of golden love- make tears of joy run right down their leg. Customer service was HORRIBLE. Glad I dont deal with them and go though James Duff or broncograveyard for that stuff...

It works better that way, well for them at least- They have nice dress items for hoses, nice wire looms, great service on aftermarket pushrod stuff, they have always just fallen short in the Mustang area-

Which is okay, I mean, with companies like AM, LMRS, S3, etc.

Get on a F150 site and sell them they fit.....

2004-2008 SOHC 4.6
2005-2006 SOHC 5.4
1997-2006 4.2 1997-2008

The only thing that might screw you out of selling them is that they are indeed Fram.

[4vGT]

Eh, Ill just give them to my Mom, she has a new Escape and they fit hers as well. Pffft! Lol

Not all, some take a 3600 and some take a 2. Depends on thread size. Trust me haha.
