I know this was discussed (at least briefly) once before.  Lets say I have a 
62 MGB (its actually an MGA, but it has a early 3 main B engine).  What spin 
on filter goes on the adaptor here.  I just recently got the car, and it 
already had the spin on conversion done.  The filter on there was a Hastings 
134.  Never heard of Hastings, and can't find them in the stores around here.  
Also, it seems to me that someone had a bad experience with one of the big 
oil filter manufacturers.  Something about an internal leak on their filter 
based on positioning.  I didn't save the messages, so if anyone remembers 
this, please let me know. 

Thanks
