5-30 or 10-30 will be fine.

Where ever you go buy your oil from, just use their book to look up the part number for oil filter and fuel filter

I use Mobil 1 0w40, but the 5w30 or 10w30 will work ok too. As for oil filters, if you get a K&N oil filter the part number is KN1007. Otherwise I suggest going with a Wal-Mart Supertech brand which is part #ST3506.

AC Delco is right... you got it. I'm not sure on the part number though... however, I did use a fram fuel filter for my car when I changed mine. Part number is G7315.

The K&N Oil filter is $10, and you can get it at just about any auto parts store... it's the best filter available, as it flows pretty damn well and filters pretty decently to boot. The Wal-Mart one is great too, the best value oil filter around... $2 at Wal-Mart.

AC Delco works fine... not crappy at all. just a matter of personal preference more than anything since they're in the middle of the pack as far as price, quality, flow, etc.

Yeah, oil filter K&N... that's what I was talking about. The only fuel filter I mentioned was the Fram, which was part number G7315.

So oil filter = K&N (#KN1007)
fuel filter = Fram (#G7315)

I use Redline 5W30 and K+N Gold oil filter part # HP2006 (long version) the other part # listed above is the regular size.

I happen to think the stuff I use is pretty good

the difference between long and regular is exactly how it sounds, the longer version is longer than the regular version. The benefit of this is that you could fit about an extra half quart of oil and larger area to deposit dirts.

The difference between Mobil 1 and Redline is a question for Patman, he knows all about the oil stuff, but I believe one of the big things is Redline has a lot of moly in it. But to answer you simply is Redline is one of the best oils. Mobil is still good stuff, I use it in my girlfriend's car

use the truck oil filter, more volume then the F-Body. I belive its PF-52 or PF-5x. Just look up when you get to any auto parts store. Fuel fillter I would only use AC Delco its like $20 at the dealer. All the other ones clogg up real fast and that kills the fuel pump.
