+1 and get it at Costco. The napa gold filter is a wix. The puroilator is also a good choice.Quote:

If I am not mistaken, I think that the Wix filter is Oreily's house brand also. I know for a fact that their oil is Havoline just for future references.Quote:

Brand is really not important to me anymore. Ran the factory 5.3 in my avalanche till 173k on Mobil 1 and the internals still looked like an old cruddy nasty engine.
I actually put some 15W50 Mobile1 in my truck, because it was availible and a good deal. Surprisingly(to me anyways) my valvetrain has quieted down a good bit and my oil pressure is a good bit more consistent.
CASTOL GTX 5w30 and a fram filter, i use it as the breakin and everything after. Just what ive always used so i dont know about everything else. never had any issues with my engine. plus its not the most expensive and if something blows up you wont be pissed about all the money you spent on oil :LOL:
heard bad about fram filters collapsing recently so I swapped to acdelcoQuote:

Fram filters are the DEVIL Bobby Boucher! Mine gets Mobil 1 and the biggest Wix I can. I forget the part number but it's twice the size.
