Re: Fram Racing HP8 Oil filter
Through the 46 years of my Engine business Fram filters seem to be the most common filter my customers have issues with, esp in endurance type applications. if an engine leaves my shop it has a Wix, NAPA, Baldwin or System 1 filter.

I had the guy from the Sunoco lab check my System1 filter as well. It did not catch as much trash as the WIX, nor flow as much. Very suprised.

Re: Fram Racing HP8 Oil filter
Countless problems traceable to Fram filters over the years. From OE stuff in the old dealership days, to stories of guys tearing up equipment at the track due to filter failures. Even though I've been told the HPs are different from the regular filters, I won't take that chance.
Spin on filters - Wix, NAPA Gold, and I see K&N used on a lot of high end stuff. I've always used System One on my stuff and like the ability to maintain it weekly to catch any problems early. |

Re: Fram Racing HP8 Oil filter
We had a bunch of trouble them with Fram Filters around
10 years ago. We will NOT use them again! K & N on all our stuff!
