    nope, 4ac one is larger then a 4age one.

    search for ae82 twincam 4A-GE in their books and i think you get the same code as above ^.

    Don't know if this is relevant however some filters I believe the proper ones/good ones have a safety valve inside the filter. My old one had it it was a Valvoline filter but can't remember the number on it. The valve is supposed to open if the filter gets clogged so the engine doesn't starve for oil. The new one I put in didn't have it however I change my oil more frequently so this shouldn't be a problem.

    indeed its called a anti-drain back valve... you better make sure they have one... only some of the ryco's have them, if yours doesnt change brands

    I used to use a Z158 for the larger size, but when I fitted my sandwich plate it fowled on my exctrators, so went back to using a Z386.

    Edit: I'm running a JDM bigport 4a.
