<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">Thanks everyone for the responses. I thought I’d share my research and conclusion.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">The WIX filter finder is actually very good. You can key on any parameter (thread diameter and pitch in my case, �-16) then sort by any other attribute. I used Gasket ID. Since I knew a 51516 (4.8” long) fit
the adapter, but was too long, I used its gasket info. As others suggested, the 51348 (3.4” long) and the 51056 (2.7” long) were the best alternatives. So, I ordered both. The attached (I hope they come thru) photos show the comparison.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">Note that while you can see the 51516 installed, I can’t do that without rotating the housing to be able to get the filter on and off. That’s why it’s not an option. The 51348 requires a steeper housing angle
than the 51056, which means more spillage when changing, but it has more capacity and I can get it in an XP which has about twice the filtration. Since I’m going to likely spill some regardless, I’ve decided on the 51348XP.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black">I purchased a spin-on oil filter adapter for my wife's GT6, but quickly learned that the standard WIX (51516) oil filter is too long given the GT6 frame location. Does anyone have an oil filter
make/number (presumably shorter) that works on a GT6?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
