MACH 1 oil Filter?

[Madtel4]

What is the Motorcraft part # for the oil filter on the MACH 1? My supplement book says FL500S same as my 2018 GT. Some say it is the GT350 filter. Has anyone actually changed the filter and knows for sure?

I run a 820S on my 2015 GT 5.0

I’m interested to know for sure as well.
I read it has the gt350 adapter, whatever that means.
I have my 10qts and fl500s ready to go

What is the difference in the 820S and the FL500s? Will 820S fit Mach-1?

Immaterial, just stay with Ford’s recommendation.

Has anybody determined how you get to the filter? My old GT had a small trap door and I didn't see anything under the Mach 1 that was similar.

Same trap door and FL 500S filter.

The engine has a much larger cover under it extending to the back of the oil pan. I haven't jacked up the car but by looking underneath I did not spot the trap door, you have seen it?

 

[Madtel4]

Yes, drivers side 1/4 way back. has a single bolt keeping it on.

This is my trap door covered in oil. I think it is from the filter change. The drain plug and filter are dry. I washed out the cover best that I could I will see.

Thanks for the photo to help locate the door.
Is the filter still at an almost 45 degree angle making oil changes messy?

My Dealer changed the oil. I think the oil from the filter must have all been caught by the belly pan and now leaks out. At least I hope that's what is leaking.
