These are being sold as the SuperTech brand at WalMart and perhaps under other names elsewhere.

So what's the best filter for a 5.3l truck? AC Delco?

Or a Purolator. I prefer Purolator PureOne filters.

Wix was the supplier a year or so ago.

I only bought one in my entire life. With that black rubber coating on it my filter cap wrench wouldn't fit on it when it came time to remove it.

No, AC-Delco filters are being farmed out for mfg. to many suppliers, including Champion Labs.

Right now personally the only US filters I would buy are Purolator, Wix, Baldwin, Fleetguard or Motorcraft. Wix filters are also sold as the NAPA Gold and whatever Carquest's premium filter name is.

YMMV, John
