I noticed my oil pressure went up slightly when I used a K&N to replace the AC Delco.

Ummm.... if you changed nothing but the oil filter and got more oil presure wouldn't that mean that the filter is a restriction?

I'm thinking of trying that NAPA gold (WIX) to see what it does to my oil pressure. I have an STP filter on there now and I'm not sure I like my warm oil pressure. I rarely use STP filters.
