There is a lot of good oil filters out there just wondering what you are using. Some good filters are the Wix 51085, 51068, 51515 or Napa Gold 1085, 1068 or the 1515. Mopar 5281090BB or the OFE00292. I know Wix makes them all just wonder which one everyone likes

I use FL1A on my stroker 451...
FL1A still the best bang for the buck , its big and cheap,
The Motorcraft filters are somewhere in between a Purolator Classic and a PureOne.
 
I run the FL1A on Everything ! Best filter with a High Bypass spring and Great filter quality . Even ran them on the Brand X racing engines with the adapter.
I have cut them all open to come to this fact and I must say you would be surprised what you find inside !!
 
I go across town to Napa to get mine, a 10 min drive.
 
Napa Gold 1515. Good quality, reasonably priced.
 
FWIW, Walmart SuperTech filters are also made by Wix.
Wouldn't use a Fram if I had a free life time supply.
I do use their air filters though.
 
The wix 51515 or Napa Gold version(1515)just depends on which store I'm at. (440 engine)
 
Another oil filter thread :thankyou:

And some still haven't watched the video on Fram filters.

For years it Fram across the board but as of present, it's NAPA Gold or Wix - period. Todays Fram is absolute garbage. Look for youtube video on the subject. Enlightening.
 
Wix makes the filters NAPA sells. Look at the part numbers. I used to work at NAPA.
