I use a motorcraft oil filter along with Mobile 1 synthetic oil.

I've used K&N oil filters, the stock Motorcraft F820s and WIX oil filters. I have found a source for Ford Racing oil filters which are just the F820 filters but upgraded for better all around protection and I will try these next.

How do you fit the K&N filters in there with the dam nut welded on the end? I have a bit*ch of a time with the smaller filters. That's why a oil filter relocation kit is getting installed, just tired of the hassles and cursing:)

This alone made the engine swap worth it, oil changes are EASY for me :P

Lucky bastard.

I used Motorcraft because Wal-Mart had them for less than $3. Here are some oil filter study links:

Beats me, it looks like it will from what I recall seeing. I dont have a stock block to compare to anymore.

But: Its not just the adapter, you have to have a new steering pump or mount it outward, then install another belt pulley which you can in the pic. But I can take pics if someone really want to try it!

Well when you put it that way :eek: Maybe I'll just go back to the relocation kit idea.
