Default DRAT!!! Ran out of oil fillters....(Bosch & Fram)

I apparently forgot to order a fresh stock of filters after I installed the last one last fall (Ami's Z). And, my local (last resort) joint was out of 3401 Bosch or even the PF930C Frams.

Quick! What others might I add to the list that you KNOW work well?

Thanks in advance. (I'm ordering a fresh case today - in the mean time!).

+1 the wix is the only filter I will put on my LT5. Wix in my experience just makes a better filter than the rest. The only one that comes close to their quality is K&N. 🤑

Currently Fram/Champion and Wix/Purolator/Mann+Hummel seem to be the only two major oil-filter manufacturers in the USA, making aftermarket, OEM, and third-party-branded oil filters. Mann is a German company and owner of Purolator and WIX.

The Bosch 3401, you can peel off the graphics and with
little effort, the black paint will polish up real nice!

I agree the Wix or Napa hold the most oil for me with the least clatter. Better than Bosch. Paint them black.
