Adam, DancingWaters uses a pair of remote filters and changes his oil once a year. I don't know what his anual mileage is, maybe he will chime in. But IMO this is an excellent setup as the remote filters act as addition coolers for the oil and allows for easy replacement as they are mounted in front of the radiator down low.

Man, changing oil once a year would make me nervous...that being said though, if he is using a high quality oil, blended so that he can run it that long, then thats great.
Same goes with the filters, I hope is is using one with a trusted coil spring set up for the bypass valve and not those with that jamming prone leaf spring, like Fram and some other filters use.
I swear by Wix/NAPA filters...
I also choose NOT to run a full synthetic engine oil in my truck, I run a blend (Castrol GTX High Mileage), which I believe is better suited for my ole 318

I just saw this but my brothers crown vic came from a police dept here in FL that was experimenting with these "million mile" filters, they attached to some oil line up under the hood, well his started leaking and spraying oil all over the underside of the hood so we looked into what the hell it was and found out about the test. Kinda makes you wonder if they were changing the oil on that thing at all.
