Personally I have never had a problem with any of the Fram filters that I have used. I have quit using over the counter spin on filters on my race engines over ten years ago after I had problems with some AC filters collapsing. I now use a System 1 filter and have had good results. I also don't use passenger car oil in my engines either. Haven't had any lifter issues since that change. Presently I have been using Lightning Racing oil with good result as well. They are a company local to me that makes billet rods and has developed some good racing oil to compliment their rod line.
