I recently did a write up over on Cumminsforum.com about a good friend getting had by the Chicoms over on Amazon. He saved 100.00 over OEM pricing and then we discovered the fuel filter problems and decided to go OEM. Lesson learned.

what is the difference between the racor and motorcraft?

One is a fuel filter, one is an oil filter................maybe

No - Racor is the original manufacturer of BOTH the fuel and oil filters for the Ford 6.0L. International uses their filters for their VT365 engine (the 6.0L is a Ford adaptation of the International VT365).

As I posted above - Racor is a division of Parker Hannefin. They designed the fuel system for our engines.

I had no idea Racor made oil filters, learn something new every day!

I am going to call both ford dealers tomorrow and get a quote on the filters again.

My local dealer here in Alaska is selling oil filter for 40.10 and the dual filter kit for 138.55. Dieselfiltersonline has them both for 25.99 and 67.10. Massive difference and I've verified the parts from diesel filters online are OEM.

As I have been told several times lol. Not that I dont believe you but, how exactly did you verify?
Youve heard the famous quote " Trust but verify".

Direct comparison, parts in hand.
