His is based on basically a GMC5500 with Duramax and weighs in around 20K. It was a prototype that he is now rewiring and has a few issues to fix.

So aren't Fram and Motorcraft filters made by the same company?

What about International filters? These are IH engines after all.

And for my hard start issue, the problem did not go away with OEM filters, it went away when I replaced the starter.

Racor (Parker-Hannifin) makes the Motorcraft AND the International Filters.

Fram does not make them for Ford or International. Fram does license the patents to filter components, but not the filter media.

And they make one that fits the 6.0 because they bought the patent rights to the filter size, but NOT the filter media. They don't make the motorcraft filter for the 6.0.
