I'm glad I've been using AC Delco filters! May try Motorcraft or Purolator after reading the info though. Recommend you all read this ASAP! http://www.frankhunt.com/FRANK/corvette/articles/oilfilterstudy/oilfilterstudy.html

A couple of years back on the dyno we were having a problem maintaing good oil pressure. This was with a Moroso racing oil filter. Put on an AC Delco filter and that problem went away. Plus the AC filter made 8hp more according to the dyno.

I assumed all Moroso parts were the best! I know one thing - I will NEVER use a Fram filter again!

Hey Higgy....

I'm know that you could get some Purolator filters through Imported Domestic Car Parts Warehouse in Burlington. Plus the owner, Keith Gibbons, is a regular racer at NED, and an all around nice guy!

Give him a call at (800) 462-1741 or go online at http://www.idcparts.com/

Later!

Fram Oil Filters ( NO MORE )
Two weeks before the end of the season I channged my Oil and
Filter( FRAM) When I started up the engine and had only 55lbs.
of pressure. I thought it was because the weather was cold.
When the engine warmed up it didn't get better.
I immediately changed the filter to WIX and had 100lbs.
So much for John Force?
