FYI, just put an Amsoil EaO15 on my 98 Lexus GS400 with the 1UZ-FE 4.0L V8 DOHC engine. I looks like there is ample clearance for a EaO26 if one wants to put on one (roughly 2 inches longer than a EaO15)

Translation: EaO15 dimensions are similar to Fram PH8A = Motorcraft FL1A = Wix 51515

EaO15, EaO26 is a 3/4"-16 thread filter, common place on old Toyotas I6 and V8's, old school Fords, and Lexus V8 and I6 engines.

Fits like it was designed for the bigger filter. Note capacity of oil goes from 5.5 quarts to around 6.1 to 6.2 quarts.
