Default Oil Filter

I read on here once that people were using a longer k&n oil filter and six quarts of oil(tried search but couldn't find it). Is there anything wrong with doing this and what was the part # for the longer filter?

I use a K&N oil filter #2006- it is the longer filter for the truck. My exhaust, and other parts hang lower so no worries by me.

a 46 works and is what it calls for but is the short filter not the longer one
