    Found this oil filter study. It has some good info. FRAM didn't make the cut.... Not all Oil filters are equal.

    I always thought it was PH25??

    Should I use Wix # 51522 or Wix 51258?

    Thanks again.

    I bought a whole box of Champion Labs filters at a thrift store. Nearly as good as Wix. Kinda nice when you have four or five AMC's needing oil changes.

    For your 390? Or a different motor?

    Ok, I've read around and I haven't found an answer to another oil question I have.

    Sometimes my engine will lose oil pressure for a few seconds, get some ticking of the lifters, then it's better. It mostly does it at angles, but seems like it's done it at closer to flat ground before.

    Is the pump ready to give up the ghost? Just need to put more oil in for the rock crawling trips?
