Go to NAPA and buy a 51060R Wix filter...that's the cross over for the HP4

Any certain reason you are steering away from the HP4? I run them with no problems at all. I understand the other Fram filters are no gem but the HP series seems as stout of filter as any other racing filter.

Make sure you inspect Wix filters before you install it. I showed the NAPA guy 3 filters that still had machining / stamping metal burrs near the treads. I now look over all filters very closely.
