I always get free K&N at Advance Auto when I buy oil for my other engines so I just get them in 12V size.

If running Amsoil I use the Amsoil or if Rotella NAPA Gold gets my vote.

Like I said, K&N is free with the purchase of 5 quarts of Castrol Synthetic for $27.99. I use the oil in another engine and the filter on the CUMMINS.

Baldwinn filters is what I use. Find a local shop that works on big trucks and you can buy an oil filter for 8 bucks. Baldwinn filters are very good and I have run them for about 15 years on 6 trucks in my fleet.
