What Oil Filter Is The WORST???

[andrewcanada]

I read a blurb here (?) a few years back on oil filters. I wanted to show a friend who sold me a Chevy 2500 6.5 Turbo diesel that the FRAM filters he used for the 1st 277k are junk.
Funny, but the engine seems well preserved. :W
My moto? Friends don't let friends use Fram oil filters!
Are the Hi-Po "racing" ones any better...

personally I avoid FRAM , AND mostly use WIX,PURALATOR, MOBILE 1 filters
but if you change your oil every 3500-4000 miles its far less critical
