Looks like these are now available at Canadian tire as well. They are $11.50. Pretty cheap. Maybe Iāll pick a couple up to cut open ahead of time and have one ready to go.thanks

Good Morning Advocate,This is from my personal truck. 2018 Ford F150 5.0 which is tuned and has a mustang intake manifold and exhaust. Basic setup but it sees 7500+ rpm often and makes 420 rwhp. The fram tg10575 held up really well considering, there is one wide pleat but it didnāt tear. Oil used was Liqui Moly Molygen 5w50 for 8400 kms and 300 hours. The oil life monitor was at 4%. From the looks of things I plan to extend the oil changes on this to about 400 hours or so Iām thinking. I put the same kind of oil back in with the same viscosity and used one of the new motorcraft FL-2121 filters.

Me neither anymore ... for reasons I've stated before and why I'm going with something else. I have to keep clarifying and repeating that for certain members that need to improve their short term memory. The new Champ made Motorcrafts with the eCore might be better, and most likely still meet the Motorcraft USCAR-36 which isn't too demanding to meet. Also, only some of the new Motorcrafts are eCore, and the other half of the new line still uses a metal center tube ... not sure if that's with holes or louvers.
Some info in these threads. There's a link to a PDF that shows all the detailed info. From what I understand, this line of Motorcraft filters are alternatives, not replacements of the original Motorcraft filter design.At what point did Champ start making Motorcraft filters? I know puro/mann did for years. If I knew when Champ started making them, I'd know what c&ps to look for when trying to see if I want to run them.
Also, I would be using the 910s if I were to go with motorcraft--do you know which ones are champ made?

FL-2121-B12 (FL-500S alternative)
So a few weeks ago I went into a local Ford dealership to burn up my remaining Ford Pass points and decided to get a few oil filters. The parts guy came out with 3 FL-2121-B12 filters instead of the usual FL-500S Iāve always used and told me the FL-500S had been discontinued and this was the new...bobistheoilguy.com
Motorcraft FL-2121
I finally got my hands on the motorcraft fl500s replacement. The fl2121. This is for the 5.0 coyote and 3.5 ecoboost among many other engines. Itās very light compared to other filters for these engines with its composite center tube and fiber end caps. It has lots of filter media measuring 48ā...bobistheoilguy.com
Flexible end caps save some of these from tearing. At what point is the deformation of the end caps gonna cause it to leak by around the center tube opening on either side?This is from my personal truck. 2018 Ford F150 5.0 which is tuned and has a mustang intake manifold and exhaust.

Good Morning Plawan,Flexible end caps save some of these from tearing. At what point is the deformation of the end caps gonna cause it to leak by around the center tube opening on either side?
Good info, thanksGood Morning Plawan,
In my experience cutting open both the Extra Guard and Tough Guards, I found the stamp steel spring w/bypass valve fits very tightly into the center hole. It is an interference fit and takes force to pull it out. Combined with the spring force of the stamped steel spring, I can't see an opening being created if everything is made per print. I think the media or glue joint would have to fail first.
