oil filter question

What is the recommended oil filter for Rotella T-6? This is for my '97 7.3L
How many miles can I go using this synthetic oil before I need to change it?
Thanks.

Just use whatever filter you always use. Keep oil changes around 5,000 to 6,000 on 7.3 PowerStrokes. The injectors are fired by oil, so how well the engine runs is determined by your oil quality.
