    Default Duramax oil filter

    I'm just wondering if anybody is running this filter on their car? It essentially just looks like a heavier duty version of the truck filter with a bypass actually in the filter. Plus its at least twice as long as the pf454. Does anybody have any insight?

    You could but a NAPA filter at cost is like 10 bucks for my truck, why run a pricey filter on a old SBC?

    You would be running a 10mic filter on something that requires maybe 25mic?

    Other downside is that a duramax filter has like a 25lb bypass valve in the filter which I am not sure how that compares to SBC numbers.
    Correlation does not imply causation.

    I was just curious to see. It seems like that's one of the only ac delcos left in the stores that haven't went e core. We just recently got a Napa store locally, so I'll probably end up running the 2wd truck filter from them once I'm out of pf454 classics.I always seem to over think filter choices, when it probably wouldn't really make any noticeable difference what filter was on it.
