As far as a filters go wix on the hotrod and pure one on the wifes car.
And for your situation with fram I would call a lawyer that specializes in sueing corporations for not supplying certain warnings or information on their products to prevent damage to the property they are being used with.
These off the shelf type filters should have a simple warning like "not for use on modified engines"
And SAE oil containers should have a simple warning like "not compatable with flat tappet camshafts"
Fram filters will fail on a STOCK MOTOR, not just on modified engines engines.
Wish I would have read this thread before I put a Fram filter on my 598 in my 96 S-10. It "sucked" the guts out of the filter. Getting ready to tear the motor down, real soon.
I thought everybody already knew FRAM OIL FILTERS SUCK!
