one more question - Is Mobil 1 oil pretty much the same price all across town?
(i know wal mart puts the large bottles on sale from time to time)
but of course they don't put that info on the web site and I can't find any oil listed on Auto Zone.

Delco UPF44 Gold. I change motor oil every 5,000 miles the same time I change my supercharger oil.

Where's a good source for the UPF44 UltraGuard Gold filter? I checked with our shop's AC Delco supplier and they do not show them in any of their regional warehouses.

We got in a supply of AC Delco filters today and I noticed that about half of them had a sticker on the back panel that says "Made in China" :ugh WTF is this??

Now I know that there are really only 3 big manufacturing companies that make filters for most all of the brands, but I hope that AC Delco is not going to outsource all of their oil filter production to China.

Don't know if Delco makes them anymore. I bought a case of them as soon as I got the car, back in 2002. I know at one point they discontinued production and there was an uproar from C5 owners. I understand they started making them again but this was not confirmed.

I think I remember that - there was rioting in the streets. C5 guys all over the country were being arrested for civil disobedience.

Down, Remo! Down! We are not reviving this attempt of yours to stir the membership up during one of your winter-affected periods.

Folks- this thread was Remo's idea of a joke! It's time we put this thread in a balloon, and let it go...
