I have always (for the last 25 years) used the Ford 
V-8 filter, with an adaptor. (old # PF-1, etc.)
It's a large filter, with lot's of surface area for
cooling the oil, and holds a full quart of oil, extra
capacity witout a custom oil pan.
For those with clearance problems (the Ford filter
sticks out a bit), use a Purolator L10017. It's like a
shorter bodied version of the Ford flter, same base,
threads, etc. It's good if you use a sandwich type oil
cooler adaptor.
NFI, etc.
