Saw a post a while back about a bigger oil filter .. can someone point it out please .. don't come up when searching oil filter
Keep in mind that bigger oil filters don't filter any better, they can just be used longer before getting so clogged they go into bypass mode.
One of my cars had its oil filter located at the top of the engine, it was even sitting in a cup-shaped aluminum bowl that had a drain tube to let any spilled oil flow down into the pan. Its oil filter was easily changed and it created zero mess. It was pure genius, I wish I could remember which car that was.I have ran a Ford FL1 - all it does is spill more when changed.

Come to think about it a little more I think I actually saw it in a new car showroom and I think it might have been in a Toyota truck.Probably the Audi, or the Lamborghini, I don't the Mclearons have that feature

Surely you don't believe the extra quarter-cup of oil in a bigger oil filter is going to make a significant difference in engine temperature.The only advantage to a larger oil filter is increased oil capacity. Oil both lubricates and cools, a larger oil capacity, in theory should help prevent overheating, if that is an issue.
