I continue to be impressed by this stash of Champion filters I purchased on Rock Auto close out a few years back. Original thread:

COS10590 C&P:
Pics of the one I decided to cut open today. Just pulled off the ATS 2.0T after 5k miles running Pennzoil Platinum 5W30 Dexos1G2.
Very well built filter. The can is thick, media showing no signs of fatigue and the ADBV is as soft and compliant as any silicon product I've laid hands on. The bypass valve is well designed attached to a sturdy/strong coil spring at the bottom.
It really seems a shame to pull it off so early. It could easily go double the mileage IMO. However the ATS is headed on a big road trip and I wanted to send it off with fresh oil.

Champion COS10575 & COS10590 - C&P
I picked up my $1.30 Champion filters, so I decided to cut a couple open. Hybrid media, good filtering efficiency, silicon ADBV, nice basic construction, and good strong media with strong bonding. Each filter had 56 pleats. https://fme-cat.com/livedocs/Oil%20Filter%20Sell%20Sheet_052317.pdf...
