I try to stick with AC Delco for the most part, I was using Supertech when they were made by Champion labs same suppier as the Delcos but they changed for the cheaper.
Fram is the worst constructed filter out there, if people actually cut open used filters I think that fact would be the downfall of the company. On the oil forum a lube shop owner started cutting open customers filters and found a lot of Frams had blown apart the media or the carboard endcaps(everyone else uses metal) had come loose. This does not tend to cause sudden engine failure especially since most people change their oil much sooner than necessary anyway.

I run Amsoil or AC Delco, usually put an Amsoil filter in when I change my oil, then put a AC Delco filter in when I change the filter at 3,000miles, since I run Amsoil XL 10w-30(7,500mile oil)

K&N because i have always trusted the brand and it has that nifty place for a socket on the end of it so there is no need for an oil filter wrench!

K&N w. german castrol 0w50, although i dont know if it justifies spending $10+ on a oil filter.. i have used acdelco too though.. works for me plus that wrench thing on the end on the k&n's is nifty!
