Default oil filters???

I used the key word "oil filters" and got nothing,,,,

So lets get this ball rolling, back years ago I gathered a lot of different types of oil filters and cut them in half. At that time the Fram oil filter seem to be the best. some people say Fram has really gone down in their quality.

what do you all think is the best filter out the and why?

thanks.

so far I got one chrome and one the is easy on and off.. any one look in them? I have always thought the reason to have an oil filter is because it keeps your oil clean.

I dont think an oil filter is to keep your oil clean, but to trap particles from circulating through your engine.
