Use a Fram PH43 or equivalent.

PH43 is the Fram ( ) number for the shorty version of the PH8A.

However, I'm with John; the filter length isn't your problem and I'm not sure a PH43 would be short enough anyway.

I'm thinking, wrong belt, wrong pulley or something wacky with the brackets.

I agree with John. The brackets, pulleys, belt or all of the above are likely incorrect. Are they stock parts or some aftermarket abomination?

edit: I just got treed by DPelletier. Took too long thinking about it.

85068 at CarQuest for the shorty.

I think the Wix label brand numbers are the same on the end of that string. They make those filters for CQ and NAPA.

85515 is the long filter for early power steering or manual steering.

Stay far far away from fram unless you like rebuilding your engine.

Sorry but the Fram cardboard filters is not an internet fairy tale. It is the fact. Use them at your own risk. Some people have had no problem with them but I won't risk one of my high dollar motors on them. When you're shifting at 6500 rpm you don't want to trust cardboard junk filters. Take a Fram apart and then tell me how well made they are.

Cardboard end plates do not make "cardboard filters". All the end plate does is center the filter element.

Until they deteriorate and then centering goes down the tubes along with your engine.

Use whichever one gives you the "warm and fuzzies".

Wix/Napa Gold filters (and others, that's just what I like) use better parts and better construction. If you cut them apart next to a Fram there's absolutely no question and no reason not to spend the extra few dollars.
