Napa Gold 1042 (Preferred)
Mobil1 M1107
K&N Gold HP-1007

Hand tighten, plus 3/4 to 1 turn

I had trouble finding the Napa Gold filters locally so I used the Mobile 1 and K&N Gold for a few oil changes. I eventually ordered a case of Napa Gold filters online.

LN Engineering sells the Napa oil filters. Get yourself some Joe Gibbs Driven oil while you are at it!

If you have IMS solution your filter is a cross with a Toyota Tacoma, if you have stand alone spin on adapter your filter is Wix 51042 or cross. I can look up the wix part when I get home.

The IMS Solution uses the Wix 51348 or Napa Gold/Platinum 1348.

For the regular spin on oil filter adapter, the only filters I would personally use are:

Mann (in an emergency only)
Wix 51042
Napa Gold 1042
Napa Platinum 1042 (equivalent to Mobil 1 / K&N but better) - reduced flow but better filtration, higher burst strength

For track, only use the billet washable spin on filter adapter.
