I'm still using the super shorty Lotus style filter on my 347. I decided that I did not like the idea of the supply/return lines, with four hose connections as opposed to the reduced filter area. I will probably contact the guys at Barnes, as Jerry suggests, to see if they might have an adapter that would allow use of a full sized filter, but barring that I'll run the best super shorty I can get, which for me is either NAPA Gold or WIX.

And that's why Roger and some of the other guys have gone to that super short filter. General concensus is that it works fine, replace with each oil change and your good to go! No big deal.
