MG MGB Technical - K&N Oil Filters

Are the K&N oil filters offered by Moss really worth it? They cost twice as much as anything else if not more. I can certainly see room for improvement in oil filter quality but does it really make enough difference to warrant the extra cost?

Here's a link to the product: http://www.mossmotors.com/cgi-bin/db2www/mossmotors/MossUSA/shop/ViewProducts.mac/report?T=73141&PlateID=6730&ModelID=31000

Don't! I bought one from a local auto parts store and am very disappointed. Oil pressure seems to take forever to pop up. I had been buying Volvo filters which are made by Mann (and have a great anti-drain back valve), but I ran out so instead of going to the Volvo dealer, I thought I'd give K&N a try. I'm sure they do a great job of filtering the oil, but their anti-drain back valve just doesn't seem to cut it very well on the B.
