Noticed this when the old filter didn't fit in the new box..... Almost 1/2" shorter.
Looked inside with a light (at the store I looked because I heard that they were having plastic parts now, which I couldn't tell in the store, didn't think to use my high power cree xr-e AAA light, was in a hurry) and what do you know, the filter is held in place with plastic supports, instead of a big metal core... Well I guess it will flow better....
Put it on since that's all I had and I had to get the car going for work... Hope it lasts 3k...
Oh and that valvoline max life is good stuff. Motor feels just as good as fresh oil when it was time to change. Normally I can feel a little vibration more in the motor when it's time to change... And it even feels really slick/gooey/hard to describe. But wiping it off things is a lot harder than with normal oil. I can't grip something and get my fingers down the item... The oil stays between my fingers and the item coated well... Nice.
I got raped on the price though, went up 4 bucks since the other day I was there. Damnit.
Old and new filters had #'s on them.
