When I took a tech class two years ago they showed us oil filters opened up new and used. The material that they use and the by pass. Fram was the worst. They at one time were good and I always used them. Please look into the quality you get with Fram. Wal Mart brand is much better!

No problem guys.

Just a side note, the Fram filters for the 6.0 are fine to use, they're the exact same thing as the motorcraft ones... If you go to walmart, they carry both, you can open the box up and check them out for yourself... even the same part numbers! Fram is $1 cheaper though.
