doesnt matter what kind of motor you have, blackd...fram sucks any way you look at it.
anyway, more pictures from the hour or so i spent on it tonight...rockers are on and torqued down. i put on the valve covers and upper intake just to see what it looks like, and it turns out the 1.7 rockers are a tad too big to fit in the valve covers so i gotta grind the baffles out. but anyway, looks pretty sweet i think.

PureONE is said to be one of the best oil fitlers on the market. Some guy on TGO did a engineering study on a handful. Of course, Fram came in dead last, Wix was good and so did Purolator and PureONE filters. I havent seen anyone around here who sold Wix, and when I worked at Straus, its all we had.

There are some, but I can hit Autozone, Advance Auto, or Pep Boys before I hit a Napa. 2 of the 3 carry PureONE's.
Here is teh Wix info.
Wix
Another quality oil filter similar in design to the Purolator.
It has metal end caps on the filter element, a standard nitrile
anti-drainback valve, and a seemingly good flow. They are
manufactured by the Dana corporation. These appear to have a depth
gradient filter element, which uses cotton fibers to progressively
trap smaller particles as they get deeper in the filter. This helps
maintain good flow as the filter gets plugged.
Seems they are on par with the Purolator.

I see it all came together but there is no way i would go thru all that tear down and not cam it. I remember years back when i used to have my 306 Notchback i got a barely used e303 cam for like $55.00. Wish i could do that now lol the cam that just went into my 01 SS on Saturday cost $400
