I've used the ASF42 for years (since 1984) on OG900 cars, just went to SDF42 a few years ago, last purchase was SDF57 which I haven't installed.
The 42 has a large oil capacity if that's what you want...it can be removed easily with a claw-type oil filter wrench and installed by hand-tightening (funny how they always have to be removed with a wrench...). The 42 always spilled oil when I removed it...then had to gunk the area and hose it down (good exercise anyway...) The 57 sure looks easier to install!
With synthetic and a 6-month filter change schedule (annual oil change or 10K miles) you would be ok with the 57. Since I did my research years ago on 10K oil/filter changes with oil analysis, I'm not sure I'll go with the longer filter change interval iwth the 57.
