RE: Oil Filters
As I understand it, the HD filter does the job down to 5 microns, and the K&N is only down to 10 microns.
I'm not aware of any filter that does the same job as the HD filter, BUT I am not very well educated in this area either

RE: Oil Filters
I run Mobil1 and Purolator. Bought Mobil 1 at Autozone--great reviews on this filter. Purolators (more surface area inside to collect debris) I bought from AMAZON--about $5 each. Bought several and saved the freight. Both are black. I don't like the chrome--just more stuff to polish plus I heard that the black run about 10 degrees cooler than chrome.
