I am using the Fram PH8.  Seems to fit OK.  The problem is the adapter 
is a little short.
You need to check that you have enough threads in the block and in the 
filter.  I don't know
much about a check valve.  Does the PH16 have this?

Fram are real good filters (I consider them the best consumer filter 
made).
 The PH16 is a Volvo high pressure filter.  It is also a replacement 
for
the small OEM filter used Chrysler 3.0L V6's.  When choosing a 
crossover
filter make sure that the sealing o-rings are the same diameter and 
the
center hole threads are identical to filter specified for your 
application
(the adapter kit).
