Default RE: Oil filter-don't buy fram

Quote:
ORIGINAL: Cordoba man

I've been buying fram PH-8 for years on my dodges and PH-16 if the others were too long. After reading this study of different types of the same filter as PH-8 (for fords) I am throwing out my frams on my shelf and buying from NAPA or even AC Delco.
Check the link. http://minimopar.knizefamily.net/oilfilterstudy.html
That study is interesting but it's somewhat out of date. At the bottom of the page it shows the last update was in 2003. I don't know how many of the oil filter designs have changed since then, but I know that Amsoil no longer sells the SDF filter. They switched to the EA filter last year, which is supposed to be an improvement.
