Airwolf oil filter systems have been selected by Superior Air Parts as an option for installation on its soon-to-be-certified 360 series aircraft engines (Plate 3).
Superior has approved Airwolf filter kits as an option on its certified 360 engines, and available immediately as an option on its experimental XP-360 Engine and their SL-360 engine kits.

on its soon-to-be-certified 360 Series aircraft engine
The Superior 360 is a flat-four, air-cooled powerplant in several variants producing between 180 and 200 hp, and is offered in carbureted and fuel injected versions. It will be available as a certified, zero-time engine in the near future and is currently available as a non-certified XP-360 engine for kit/ homebuilt aircraft. Superior also offers the SL-360 engine kit. The FAA certificate will allow Superior to vie for OEM installations in certified aircraft.
The 360 was designed and engineered to accept an oil filter system. Superior assessed several systems and, without reservation, selected Airwolf. Airwolf has delivered thousands of filter kits for all types of air-cooled engines, from the smallest four-cylinder up to the largest radial.
Airwolf systems are remote-mounted, usually on the firewall, producing lower oil temperatures, while mounting the filter vertically makes replacement simple and convenient – no drips, no mess. All systems are lifetime warranted for workmanship.
