Review: Simply the BEST - I'm real picky when it comes to choosing anything for my car even something as simple as what oil and filter to use. After tons of countless research online from sites like bobistheoilguy .com and other sources I eventually came across a few bench tests as well as personal experiences from various filters. All oil filters are okay to use and in reality any filter is "good" BUT some filters do really out perform others. Without getting to caught up with brands though something to look for in oil filters are media type. Your cheapo cellulose filters (FRAM Orange cans are an example) are okay to use but really not that great especially when comparing to other types. Then you have the synthetic blend type filters that are better than your typical cheapo filter (Personally would at a minimum run this in my vehicles) and lastly you have the best kind of filters which are synthetic glass which all tend to filter far better than any cheap cellulose filter and still better than any synthetic blend filter. Now this isn't just hype because I saw a box that had the word "Synthetic" on it but because i actually saw proof. A used oil analysis appeared to show better results with a synthetic filter (They filter better so they keep your oil cleaner over time) and because I saw a bench test where someone actually mixed a nasty oily batter with very tiny particles in it (which are still large enough to see with your naked eye) and ran them through each filter he had about 8 different kinds (Mitsubishi filters are complete garbage, avoid at all costs!) and regardless of branding all the cellulose filters finished last allowing the most crud getting through, next synthetic blend filters all showed good results, but on top were all the synthetic filters which allowed the least amount of particles to get by (hardly any). Some brands were better than others but nothing very significant except for Mitsubishi oem filters which did significantly worse than anything else. The very top filter though was Royal Purple then another (forgot the name) which were both manufactured by Champ Laboratories for both brands. With all of this said rest assured that Royal Purple oil filters which are 100% synthetic (and manufactured by Champ Labs) are the very best oil filters that you can use on your car, if RP does not have a filter for your application I recommend any synthetic filter, then any blend if you cant find a full synthetic filter and lastly a cellulose filter. Remember this might not make a huge difference right away but in the long run better filtration means a healthier engine that will last longer, not to mention cleaner oil means you might be able to extend your oil change intervals making up for the additional cost (Just don't wait too long!).

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this oil filter fit a Dodge Ram 1500 2012 5.7 liter Hemi**
A: I'm not to sure. But I've put this one and the 30-8A on my 04 dakota 4.7. If this one fits then the 30-8a will, they both have 3/4-16 thread pitch. I would check weather you have the 345 or 350 hemi. Sorry I couldn't help

**Q: How long does this oil filter last? What is the life of this oil filter?**
A: Filter is good for synthetic oil changes at least 7,500 mi. & 10k if u must go that long betw oil chgs. No point to using synthetic oil with cheepo oil filter.

**Q: This filter is a fit for my 4.7 wj but is it better than the k&n filter?**
A: Yes. IMO, the Royal Purple filter, and the Purolator Boss, are the best filters made.

**Q: Will this fit a 1989 jeep cherokee 4.0l? their website doesn't list this year.**
A: This filter doesn't cover that model year and engine (don't know why to be honest I have reached out to our catalog team for clarification).
