Mobile 1 Oil Filters?

Why can't I find a freaking Mobile 1 Oil filter??
Mobil 1 Model M1C151 is what we need.

None of the stores carry the filters.

I'm not going to buy Fram. Any help?

AC Delco filter from the dealer is also what I would use just in case there is a warranty problem.

That is not necessary. All one has to do is use a filter that meets or exceeds the pubished requirements for filtration as referenced in the owners manual.

stupid question, but 5 quarts I'm guessing?

I didn't know if the Turbo used any extra (noticeable amount)

I'm used to my LS1's where I run 6 quarts
