The Ford filter number is Motorcraft FL-400S. It is highly recommended that you stay away from FRAM Oil filters because of their poor construction and lack of quality control.

Recommended filters for the Vulcan engine:

-Mobil 1 M1-209

-Motorcraft FL-400S

-Purolator PureONE PL20195

-Wix #51516

You can run any good 5w-30 Conventional or Synthetic Oil. Synthetic blends are considered a waste of money because there is no regulation on how much synthetic lubricant is required for it to be called a "Synthetic Blend". You're best bet is to just run a good quality oil and change it every 3,000 miles. Do not worry about changing weights every winter or summer. (5w is the number you should worry about this is the "Cold" weight. The 30 or 20 specifies the "hot" weight.) In places that see frequent temperatures below 20 degrees, You should try a 0w-30 oil. The Vulcan engine thrives on 5w-30 year-round. If your vehicle specifies 5w-20, it is recommended you follow the listed viscosity in order to prevent issues with warranty.

You can run synthetic without voiding warranty.

How do you completely remove the stock air filtration unit on a 1991 Ford Probe LX 30L V-6 to replace it with a new cold air intake unit?

the simplest answer is that when you purchase the after market "cold air intake" there will be instructions with it. If you intend to make one your self then I would suggest just taking everything out and, get a cone style K&N air filter or, something comparable to attach directly to the throttle body.
