I use Delco PF48's and not because I think they're the "best". But I believe all those Automotive Engineers attached to the development of Corvette engineering know what they are doing and specified a filter adequate for the task. Would another filter do a "better" job? A Rolex is "better" than a Timex; but they both do the same thing! What I can't be certain of is whether or not another brand of filter would be at least
as good as the Delco PF48,so I'll stay with what I know for sure.

Bzzzz... wrong... The Wix filters are made here in NC, not sure about the others... and they are not all created equal.
