Hey man do you have a part number that you ordered off that site?
I assume it will work fine for the NA 7.3 idi?
it's the one posted in the first post here by vn1500g3,which is: PFRK21057

item says it's a special order from them,but my log truck isn't going on the road this winter anyway,and that's what its for.so no hurry on my part.i just jb welded the leaky oem bowl for now so i can start the truck.
you guys know you can get napa/wix filters that eliminate a need for a bowl too right? i got thinking though,what then if i need a filter on the road? no one stocks those filters but all the parts stores pretty much have the oem style 7.3l filters on the shelf.im not one to carry any spare parts at all,so i like the idea of just running the metal bowl.during my google search though this thread popped up and i remember seeing it back along.glad i was reminded by my searching.i like the clear bowl,even though the dura lift traps most of the water there,it's just a good idea.
