I'd try the Napa Platinum or Wix XP filter.

Metal end caps are overrated and overhyped. Many filters use fiber, glue, or 'none'. So, any/all of the Fram products are just fine. End cap is not a deciding factor.

Are these filters leaking on you? If so, how are they being installed? I inspect my filters before usage. I cut them open after usage. When possible, I avoid buying filters on amazon/ebay. I use a torque wrench. Sure, all manufacturers have quality control issues. Until you experience repeat problems, keep using them.

To test threads prior to installation, buy an M22 1.5 nipple used on those remote filter mounts.

And, the full list of filters at Rockauto, Napa, Autozone, AdvanceAuto/Carquest, Oreillyauto are all good, unless you're looking for bitog acceptance or breaking some oil or filter usage records. Just listen to your engine as it will tell you if it doesn't like the filter.

I’ve had no problems with Mobil 1 & Kn oil filters the black can. I’ve used Acdelco in the past those also were good filters.

Used a slew of filter brands on the "same car" (5 Saabs with the same engine) and ACDelco always held back top end oil where all the others let the oil return to the sump.

Are ACDelco filters known for better ADBVs?
My 4.0l SOHC ('05 Ranger) likes a primed system upon start-up. I'm wondering if an ACDelco will hold prime longer in my application.

ADBV performance and material chosen is dependent on the filter chosen. Within a brand, there could be more options/designs than one can shake a stick at. I prefer silicone ADBV's and pick filters with them. With the shortage of silicone in the market place, other materials, like AEM and coated and better nitriles will have to take up the slack until supply is addressed. USCAR36 has an ADBV performance test and its nothing to brag about.

 

[Schandyman]

Nitrile and alternative materials such as AEM will hold its own. Before silicone no one questioned it. What did we do before cellphones? We got by.

All that really matters is the oil filter doesn't fail.

 

[ZeeOSix]

A nitrile ADBV getting hard and stiff would be considered a failure.

I've been using the Champ XL filters off rockauto lately and they seem to be a good filter and good price.

I was looking at ordering some
