What's the difference if it's made in China or Brazil? The other "Ford" filters are manufactured in Brazil. Does Brazil have better materials and manufacturing capabilities than XYZ? What if it were made in Mexico?

There's still potential for failure of any filter cartridge regardless of where the filter is assembled or made - even it if were made here on this soil.

All Ford does is cast out the bids to vendors who can build a unit based on their (Ford's) Engineering Team's specs, period. Not to mention, Ford and ANY Automotive Manufacturer will always choose the lowest bid to save on costs anyway. Hell, look at the quality of the S550 right off the assembly line, and we're going to cast doubts on quality of parts made overseas...

Looking at the images of the FL2062 and FL2062A, there's an obvious size (length) difference between the (2) units. Shouldn't the purpose of the filter cartridge be to fit the filter cup so that it seals and is seated as designed? That's like defeating the purpose of a proper install too by using a part that isn't the proper part for the job - but we're going to cast the "its made in XYZ"...

Throwing out the fact of where an oil filter cartridge is made - it does appear that the AC Delco cartridge could have been installed incorrectly or it had moved/twisted when the oil can top was replaced.

A freestanding paper filter cartridge element that is not enclosed in a metal casing like the GT350 is prone to slight movement of the filter pleats due to engine psi and R&R of the filter. The pleats on some filters may not be as strong and would compress or "squish" sooner than other designs.

The other (2) issues too is the more debris that gets trapped in the pleats, the higher the oil psi will be and the heavier the pleats become, which is also prone to collapsing the pleated column of the unit. And if the material is more restrictive from one filter media to the next, that too affects oil psi.

You are always spot on. I wonder "who are you, who are so wise in the way of science" (monty pithon, the holy grail).

That begs the question as to how many and what type of swallow(s) is(are) required to deliver an FL2087 filter???

African or European?

African or European?

Filters are obviously lighter than a coconut so either 2 European or one African swallow.

But African swallows are non-migratory so it may be harder to get one to deliver the filter.

On the other hand the European swallows will have to overcome the inherent disparity of the filter box and its lack of aerodynamic flow causing more drag.

Then there is the inherent class distinction issue of using the swallows as simple peasant class laborers with no value in the socio-economy class structure that has so divided the working class from the economically elite for countless generations. Sounds like repression to me.

IN SUMMARY GOOD PEOPLE OF THE 6G BOARD OF KNOWLEDGE:
Looks like we are never getting FL2087 Filters.

I offered three Playstation 5 consoles and a full bitcoin to a vendor. He said "can't help you." Then I said I have a 5 gallon container of 93 octane gasoline to throw in. He said "let me get back to you, we may be able to make you a 2087 in house."
