I bought the stuff from Carquest and have had it on for bout 3,000 miles gonna change the filter soon and cut it open and see what all is caught in it.

My first filter was pretty nasty and I didn't even cut it open -I let it drain out some and saw sand filled coolant, the second filter that was cut open after running it about a month looked decently filled with some sand with other scale, and crud. The waterpump and the whole general cooling system gets a benefit from the filter. Something must be improved to have lesser amount of junk flowing with the coolant in there.
