I haven't heard of this, but would look into whether or not you have the clearance to fit it. I am not sure of the specs of the stock filter, but I would guess it is around 6-7 inches. If you have a link, please provide it.

I do not know anything about this filter. I recently bought a 2005 Chevy and it has this filter on it. I did a search on the internet for it without much information. There was a listing on eBay for them and that is where I got the info on the size. The site is listed below. Anyone else with any info on this filter?

Extra long filter = longer life??? I'm in!

I am not sure about that filter number (R05168) from Racor. The stock OEM Parker Racor filter that replaces the factory original is PFF5544. Maybe a call to Parker will tell you if the R05168 is a direct replacement, just the canister being longer. If that is the case, it should be OK. Also, I did some research for you and found that the stock filter is about 5 inches in length, and about 4 inches in circumference. Here is a link.
