I don't know if it's national, but NAPA gold filters are on sale (½ off). I got 2 (the ones for a Corvette ZR1) for $4ish each! They are one of the best filters available, and at these prices, I change them with every oil change. It may sound excessive, but my stock GS still runs like brand new.

I don't think they ever go on sale here in Canada

Don't you normally change filters every oil change...

Lol... That's what I was thinking. Why wouldn't you for a few bucks extra??

thanks, I really like using those on my cars.

wow that's a great deal! These filters compare to the amsoil filters!

how about a part number?

Sorry, Dan. I couldn't get to the computer today. They are the ones for the Corvette ZR1 DOHC. I get them for a '93 because it's the same year as my car _ easy to remember.

OK thanks.

Ive been using FC rx7 oil filters. they are also a little bigger then OEM and fit the k-series.

Picked up two K&N perfromance gold at half price on the clearance shelf last time I was at tsc

what's the benefit of using a larger oil filter??

well for one you get to use more oil per change and it costs you more mone...... oh wait.. not a benefit.

I just get which ever is cheaper since they both fit

It works as a small sump, so when you accelerate (as I know you do ), you are less likely to starve your oil pump. Also, with more oil, it cools better, and with more filtering element, you filter better. All of these aren't that much more of a difference, but for the price (especially on sale), it doesn't hurt. They (especially good filters) don't restrict as much as cheap ones, so I think you get better pressure to oil your stupid #6 cyl.
