Quick question. I have been using K&N oil filters in my TA since I bought it. I was just wondering what kind of oil filters everyone else is using and where do you get them at? I am starting to thing $10+ for an oil filter is over rated. ---

i’m running one of the new amsoil Ea filters. they’re supposed to be the shit, but they’re expensive as hell. if i didn’t get amsoil at dealer pricing i wouldn’t even think about it. ---

> [@Quik](#): > > K&N alot easier to take off Ditto. 1" hex welded to the base of the filter so it can go on/off with a ratchet and extension. In fact, I just did this yesterday on my LT1. In case you want to (over)think about this some more, read this study: [http://minimopar.knizefamily.net/oilfilterstudy.html](http://minimopar.knizefamily.net/oilfilterstudy.html) (Also read the “Oil Filters Overview” linked at the bottom of the page.) I concluded that most filters from reputable sources are good enough, especially at the high change intervals that I do. ---
