Their spin on filters are the best if you ask me. They have a much better design for their bypass

i use the Delco filter for the Cobalt's oil needs, K&N for the air needs.

on my old 99 Monte Carlo 3100 V6, i use K&N air and oil filters.

Here's the pic from awhile ago. there are alot of differences, the fram is on the left and of course is used . I'm talking about changes in the plastic frame.

Do you have any pics of the interior of the PF457G? I noticed the Wix and AC filters have smaller plastic frames and much larger interior openings. I returned my Fram because I didn't want the engine starved of oil.
