Super tech is made by pennzoils or quaker state.

Super tech oil filter is made my Champion Laboratories ( which is good company )

but when I compare the super tech oil filter with motorcraft FL820s, its way too small, is that gonna effect any performing ? thanks

I have run across a few oil filters made by aftermarket companies that were shorter than a standard 820... I would run a real 820 since it will have the anti drainback valve and more filter surface area

I agree why run something cheaper when the motorcraft filters are so cheap.Is your motor really worth saving a dollar or two?
