Oil filter with Amsoil Troy 4-8-01  
If I use Amsoil (10w30) in my 454 (1985 Southwind) motor, is it okay to use a standard oil filter? If so, what is the best filter to use?
Thanks in advance.

If you are going to use the Amsoil to extend oil change intervals, then make sure to use oil filters with sacrificial anodes in them to neutralize the acid formed in the engine. I've seen a Fram filter like this.If you're going with regular drain intervals, then the standard filter is fine.
