Have not "bulged a canister", or "lost oil pressure", or turned a muffler bearing yet.

On a side note, I calculated I've saved $10,210.00 by doing my own oil changes, running Fram filters and buying Exxon Mobil in bulk. twocents twocents twocents twocents wink

On ANOTHER side note, has anyone seen what a Fram CA332 goes for these days? whistling


Ya know, I've never understood the Fram bashing. Ya can't swing a dead cat on the internet without hitting a thread about slicing up oil filters and being told that Fram is crap. I've been running them since the 80s with exactly one problem. Some how I got one that slipped past QC with no threads in the base plate.

There is a reason why you see all the Fram bashing, it's because they are nothing more than adequate at best and garbage at the worst. Maybe you will never have a problem with one, but maybe you could have a catastrophic failure with one too. There are better quality filters readily available for a few cents more. Why would you want to gamble, especially with an expensive race engine?
