Very nice. Pop that straight-vane out and put in a spiral. |

The ramped spiral activator(that GE went back to later on) is hands down better than either the straight8(worst of all) or the straight4. I once sawed off the upper vanes on my parents straight4 and improved the performance of their Filter-flo, very much like the one in Philly. After thinking about this for years, I realized that GE went to the Straight activator design in the mid sixties to improve performance of the mini-basket. It was a mistake that took them about 15 years to correct.

Great comparison video. Watching the Ramped Activator was like watching the Easy Spiralators in high gear. So what year exactly did the Filter Flos go back to the spiral agitator? Have a good one, James |
