I hear ya' 427Sharpe. I have an old friend from my SCOF days that had an issue with Bilstein race shocks. The thinking was that if it were race shocks, they would make his car go alot faster. Fortunately for him, his shocks would fracture and/or break while being trailered to races or cobra events. He's lucky it never happened while going 80+ mph on a road course.

Just go with the Fram, AC Delco, or Mobil filters for me. They've worked this long for Christ sakes, why switch now? Beside my Corvette manual specifically calls out for AC Delco filters, as I doubt they would recommend it under warranty otherwise.
