Don't have it with me. Just ask for a filter for a 1986 RN (4 cyl) Truck, 22R or 22RE motor. It is exactly the same spec as an Evo filter, anti-drainback valve, etc. I buy them by the case for about five bucks each at the dealer. That filter fits about half the cars ever made, including everything with a R block (22R, etc.,) Evos, Lotus 910, and more. If you want a slightly longer filter, ask for one for a Lexus LS400. The longer one will probably be too big if your bike has it behind the transmission, but might be OK if yours mounts up front. I can look at the box when I get home if you really need the part number.
