I'm still curious about the difference between Napa Gold and Napa
silver, besides cost. I usually buy the Napa silver equivalents, except
for the filter for my 67BGT (canister design, messy but original). That
only comes in the gold version, Napa #1500. It certainly is a better
design than the standard open filter style that goes in the canister.
I still need to read the article when I get a chance. The MG Driver is
at home buried somewhere with a lot of other papers and paperwork.

Maybe time to start a controversy.
I just finished reading MG Driver (Vol 15, No 2 -
March/April 2005). In tech talk, Bob Mason gives
a good review of the NAPA Gold #1068. My filter of
choice.
He ends it with stating that he feels the NAPA Gold
#1515 is even better. As it's 3/4" taller, with the
same outside diameter, same thread size and the
silicone rubber anti-drain back valve.
That's not implying that the 1068 doesn't have an
anti-drain back valve is it?
I should also mention, Bob passed away on Feb 10th.
He'll be missed.
Paul.
