Scott,
I click on the pic. Yup... Stupidity confirmed. He has DUAL Oil
Filters....O.K...this I can understand...But, they're both FRAM. What's
the second one for, in case the first one blows up? As if one filters
worth of element eating up your engine isn't bad enough, this guy's trying
for two! At least it won't destroy an Olds engine, eh?
Look again. Those are ***not*** standard Fram oil filters. They are Fram
HP-1 heavy duty, high capacity racing oil filters. While standard Fram oil
filters may have turned into junk, the Fram Racing oil filters are premium
quality, high value, and filter very well. At Summit, they sell for $9.95.

The dual filter setup is to give double the oil filter media area to help
keep the oil cleaner. It's extra insurance. That is a blown engine. It's not
like any engine you may be used to. The blower can dump a lot of crap past
the rings, depending on how the owner fuels the engine. Don't ever second
guess a dual oil filter setup on an exotic engine. There's probably a very
good reason for it.
