Thanks Jim. I really appreciate it. It was right at the end of my lunch
hour.

Here Goes... I have listed all filter specs in the same order for each
filter.
Per the Purolater Catalogue:

1991-1994 SR20DE applications:
L14477  <--- the standard purolator filter #
Outside diameter: 2.70 inches
Height: 3.57 inches
Connection size: 3/4-16 UNF-2B
Flow rate (Gallons Per Minute): 3
Relief valve PSI: 14-18
Anti Drainback Valve: Yes

PL14476  <--- the purolater pure one filter I use
2.70
2.98
3/4-16 UNF-2B
3
14-18
yes

1995-2000 SR20DE applications
PL14622 <--- Pure one
2.70
2.98
M20x1.5
3
14-18
Yes

01 SR20DE apps (and oddly enough 02+ QR25DE apps)
L14610 <standard Purolator #
2.70
3.58
M20x1.5
No Flow rate listed
14-18
Yes

Possible Substitute application for B15 applications:
PL14620
2.70
2.98
M20x1.5
3
14-18
Yes

These are all the specs i could find. Purolator does not list a pure one
application for the b13 platforms or for the b15 platforms (both SR and QR25
and QR18 engines) I added the last one there as a possible substitute for
the B15 applications. Looks like it should work just fine. They do not
however give gasket diameters so that would be the only thing i would look
at before using this Part number on my car.

And for reference for the archives:
purolator specifications

Hope that helps someone
