      I have received many oil filters from Amazon and haven’t seen this kind of damage. Just random damage. My son ordered a couple 5 quart jugs of oil from them and one of the jugs was cracked on the bottom. Fortunately they had bagged the jugs so no oil escaped the packaging. They obviously didn’t want them returned and refunded his whole purchase and he got to keep the oil.

    Wix, FTW. Made in the US and uses a coil compression spring. Filters with elements this big really benefit from strength of coil spring. As for buying anything from Amazon, here's my experience. Best to buy directly from Amazon, as opposed to third party sellers. Anytime I've bought from Amazon and there has been an issue, always made it right with refund or replacement. Based on that, my speculation would be had the seller been contacted, the Wix filter would have been right too. Thanks for vid.

      My friend's 82 Toronado diesel uses a smaller filter than this, PH25/PH11 (long version). It had 446,000 miles on it in 1990. Who knows how many now. The 6.2s use the standard Chevy PH5/PH30, so they can use these or the PH373 big size. Not sure about the 90s 6.5 Turbo, never dealt with one before.

    I’d like to know how many customers had to send that Wix back to Amazon because of the damage. Amazon will let anyone who can fog a mirror deliver for them now. We used to be proud of the Wix brand down here in N.C. but with MH’s acquisition and with the current sad condition of the workforce the Wix brand has been forced to get more of its products produced in China and Mexico. It’s a damn shame like the song says.

      They are the OEM filter for the 307/327/350/366/427 in the medium duty trucks. Filter hangs down vertically near the level of the oil pump, so no ADBV needed. No bypass needed because it is built into the oil filter block adapter. They will fit any of the Pre-LS small blocks, big blocks, and the 6.2 diesel, with the oil filter screwed directly to the block.
