any downfalls of a shorty oil filter??

I ran a short WIX filter for years on my daily driver with a 360 and never had any problems, run the biggest filter you can fit but please DO NOT USE A FRAM OIL FILTER THEY ARE ****!

he beat me to it....the short filter is fine but DO NOT use FRAM filters, they are absolute junk. I have always also ran WIX and they are great filters....both oil and air filters.

Frams have valve problems bypassing the filter....so basically your oil won't get filtered. And even when working correctly they don't have as good of a filter as a Wix. Friend of mine works at Napa, one day out of bordom they cut apart a Fram, Wix, Napa, and K&N oil filter. I guess the inside of the K&N didn't look much better than the Fram, but the Wix and Napa brand filters were about identical.
