I have heard that Motocraft, Mobile1, and Wix are all good filters.





Fram Filters= Bad, Negative, Crap, Horrible...

For oil filter check out this site.

On this page he gives his opinions of each filter.

The guy who did the cutting open of filters is a chevy/mopar dude, but all the filters he cut up were for the Ford 5.0/5.8.

I liked it so much I linked to it on my website.

very interesting. I plan on switching to Mobil 1 Synthetic. I didn't know that WIX made Napa's oil filters, in that case i'll continue with my NAPA golds.
