Baldwin Filters P81 Shunt Cartridge
The Baldwin Filters P81 is a new shunt-type cartridge oil filter element rated at 18 micron filtration. It is designed for installation inside a Purolator P704 shunt-type filter housing used on Chrysler engines. A furnished gasket is included to complete the seal.
Suited for Chrysler engine shunt housings
This cartridge suits mechanics or owners servicing a Purolator P704 housing where a shunt element is specified. It is not for buyers needing a full-flow spin-on canister or a cartridge with a different micron rating or centre-thread specification.
Simple drop-in replacement
Installation consists of opening the housing, removing the old element, and seating the new cartridge with the supplied gasket. The most common issue is reusing the old gasket or failing to torque the housing cover correctly, which causes leaks.

Questions about this item
Which filter housing must I already have for the P81 cartridge to fit?
It fits the Purolator P704 shunt-type filter housing used on Chrysler engines.
Will the 18 micron rating work with the existing bypass valve in my older housing?
The cartridge is a shunt-type lube element designed for the P704 housing, so the bypass function stays with the housing.
How can I confirm the cartridge is seated correctly after installation?
The furnished gasket should compress evenly and the 15/16 in. inside diameter should sit flush on the housing post.
