I never hear it mentioned but, is there anything wrong with the Mobil 1 in 5 qt. containers for $23 from Wal-mart? Is it a different Mobil 1?

I doubt it. The only thing that I look for on the bottle is the rating letters and that it says "full synthetic". I used to buy mine at COSTCO by the six pack, 10w-30 "full syn" in silver bottles with a silver cap. I noticed at the parts stores they have some others in the line up with gold caps which I think are the "high mileage" synthetic oils.

I'll bet my hat and saddle you can't get a Mobil 1 filter for the LT5. So would you accept a fram(sic) instead?

Actually several years ago on a wim I bought enough original black AC filters to last me several years.

On their online catalog they show M1-207 (standard oil filter) and MO-289 (Extended Performance) for engine code "J".

Nope nothing at all, except here its $22

Just bought 3 jugs but this is a better deal if you are getting an expensive filter.

Nope, I substitute the Mobil 1 ZR-1 oil filter for a Mobil 1 Oil Filter that fits my LT1 or LS1 Corvettes. Then I buy jugs at walmart etc or just stock up on the filters for LT1 & LS1.

If I am not in need and only need ZR-1 oil filter then I swap it out with a Bosch.

For those of you using the black PF970C, they don't retain oil very good.
You can get the original better ones on ebay but they are like $20 a filter and they are PF970 blue. That is why I choose the Bosch.
