For future refence with filters, you can see why I choose my Motorcraft over all the rest. It may also make you reconsider the Wix filter.

Here's some cool oil info too

http://www.api.org/certifications/en..._Oil_Guide.pdf

It's a long read, but you'll learn a lot

I never knew about the codes on the oil bottles for their certification, but it will definately help you figure out whats best for a built engine and things of that nature. It will also help you avoid oils that may not be the best thing for your engine.
