Default oil filters - AC - Wix - Mobil 1 - etc for the LS7/LS9

After looking at a variety of oil filters. the Mobil 1 M1-113 is identical to the UPF48R.

THe AC PF48 and Wix do not come close.

Highly likely that Champion Labs makes both. At least that has been reported many times in the past.

K&N has rep to uphold....knowing that I changed from UPF-48R to the K&N gold filter which is on my Z at this time....yes, it cost a few bucks more but worth it for my baby....
