John,
  I seem to recall him using Baldwin filters, as I spotted one and 
asked him where he bought them.  I've been getting mine the same
place (Williams Oil Filter Supply, Tacoma) ever since.  I get 
them for about $5 ea, so they are a bit more than the Fram.

  I have not measured it, but the Baldwin is clearly thicker steel,
and it uses a real spring in the top.  I sure wish that oil filter
website had info on the Baldwin.
