I do not understand, the oil filter is $225 and the adapter is separate ??

I though the spin on adapter allowed you to use a conventional can type oil filter that can be usually had for $20 or less ????
That's a reusable filter cartridge with a stainless steel washable filter (it comes apart).
I use one and have both 25 and 40 micron mesh filters. It came with my LN spin on adapter, otherwise I probably wouldn't have went that route...may still switch to conventional spin on filters, but I've been running it for a couple years or so with no issues.
Another advantage is that mine has a high power magnet built into it.
