Motorcraft oil filters (FL820S) in my P71 and Mustang since it is recommended by Ford.

Motorcraft FL-820S of course. I have used Purolator PureOne, and K&N Performance Gold oil filters before too. I like all three.

The K&N oil filter and PureOne were one of the top performing oil filters of their price range on oilfilterstudy.com before the site disappeared.

Wonder if there is a structural (performance?) difference between the Ford Racing FL820S and Motorcraft FL820S filters.

Hmmm...

Some good honest feedback here: With the WIX and the NAPA Gold, I sometimes get the "oil change" engine rattle when staring up. That's on both the 03 and the 06. I use 5W30 in the 03 and 5W20 in the 06. It's the FILTER that's causing this. The FL820S NEVER did this.

I vote heartily for the MC FL820S!!

I have been using all Napa Gold (Wix) filters for the last few years but I think something has changed. A friend of mine I convinced to get one for his escort and he got the startup rattle. He changed to a Fram and no more. Then the last filter I bought is doing the same thing on the Cougar! My truck doesn't but I think I'll go back to the Motorcraft filters next time I change oil.

I used to use Motorcraft, then Mobil-1 offered a filter. Later on, I switched to AMSOIL filters.

In a pinch, I'd use a Motorcraft.

I use fram because it comes with the cheap Walmart oil change.

if you ask, walmart will include the motorcraft filter at no extra charge (you just gotta ask)

I cut open one of every filter I sell at autozone, and placed them on a display. the the cheapos are all the same, inside, the delco and fram are pretty close to the same except the fram has a cardboard filler piece. the motorcraft, k&n,mobil 1 and bosch are all pretty close to identical, except the motorcraft has a denser packing in the filter media. we also cut open a wix from oreillys, and they must buy the cheap wix, as its the same as the delco/puralator.

I say all that to say that I use the motorcraft with mobil 1 oil in the marauder, and all 9 of my trucks.
