[QUOTE="TARM, post: 91533, member: 578"] If you look in my thread in the lube section over on PSN where I list all the fluids and fitlers in my engine I list the filter I run. It just barely fits without touching and adds 1 extra quart of oil and thus also that much more filtering material. I chose it because is also goes to 15 mic. Those old motors are know to be dirty beasts and if it was old had been out of tune etc its always possible some serious gunk got released. You shoudl see some of the crap I have seen under Valve covers and I have very little experience compared to someone that works on these things for a living. That filter I am running just clears the sway bar at full bottom out on the bump stops. If you have any lift at all you will be fine as well. So try that one if you want. But the regular size ELF ones I have run plenty before and never had an issue. I am also as you know running Schaeffer's 9K 5w40. In fact I run basically the entire Schaeffer's line now as I slowly changed products after careful review and trial of them. If you have been running it for a few oil changes then its likely you engine is cleaned up of any build up that MAY have been there from any dino or extended runs of OCI. There is a thread over in the tech section here about oil aeration that may interest you as well. [/QUOTE]
