I'm not a big fan of the AC Delco e core but if you can find the AC Delco with steel center tube go for it. The Fram Tough Guards are really good though. Lots of bad information floating around. They are 99% efficient at 20 microns which is among the highest efficiency ratings you can get, last I checked ac delco was less than 94% efficient at 20 microns.
The tough guards are also rated for 7,500 mile intervals, they have a high glass content synthetic blend media and also use a silicone anti drain back valve which is the best material for that.
I would recommend a Fram Ultra but it's over kill for this application, rated for 15,000 miles between changes with dual layer full synthetic media, I consider them the best filter on the market for the price. Fram Ultras exceed 99% efficiency at 20 microns and also 80%@5 microns.
Acdelco e core? Whats the difference. I usally just pick an acdelco off the shelf at walamrt...
If you're at Walmart getting oil filters, get the Fram Ultra for the best filtration. Avoid ANY AC Delco oil filter with an "e" at the end of the part number. For example, the PF63 is a decent oil filter, but the PF63E oil filter isn't. A lot of the new AC Delco PF part numbers have been replaced with e core oil filters. Avoid the e core oil filters.
