Spend a little time with the Baldwin filter catalog and you'll be able to figure out which filters will fit your vehicle, with the proper or acceptable valving and such.

One nice thing you can do with the catalog is look up all your vehicles and see if perhaps you can switch to a standard filter. I've four different vehicles here at home, all calling for different filters. By researching, I was able to go with just one single filter on all the vehicles, which incidentally wasn't specified for any of them.
