Oil Filters....
A friend of mine works for Lockheed. One of the engineers on his staff
specialized in filtration. He had spent some time as a researcher for an oil
company. He says Wix makes the best filters by a long shot. Wix makes
filters for NAPA and CarQuest.
Following is a site by a guy who has made a study of oil filters. Cut them
apart and analyzed the materials.
