Going to switch to LE here soon, however a more topical question. Do you have any recommendations on a oil filter? I can go to eBay and get a 12 pack for dirt cheap, however most everyone says to run Motorcraft. I was looking for some factual information on the topic.

I always recommend OEM, and that's mostly because the OEM delta P is my largest concern. Full flow filtration can be tricky to improve on. Because an inherit increased beta ratio will increase delta p more rapidly. Filter build quality is another concern. I've tested hundreds of filters in hundreds of applications. One filter I tested on my personal truck had glue all over it and fell apart before I could change it. And that's one you could see like on a 6.4/6.0. What's inside a canister filter bothers me.
That's why I stick with OEM. Donaldson Blue are my favorite off OEM. But they don't have a lot of filters in this sector.
