Dunno if this has come up before (and since the search feature is for chumps and noobs :P )...
is there anything barring me from using a PF52 on my 3.1 (Lbody). Its considerably taller than the PF47 but looks like it should clear. I think the oil pan/car frame will be lower than the PF52 would sit so I doubt anything could hit it -not like I'm going offroading anyways. Is there any reason I shouldnt use it?
Seeing how I'm pretty lazy about changing the oil in it (really no time during the semester), I figure a bigger oil filter would be a good idea. Its been close to 4000 miles since my last oil change, I plan on changing it next weekend. It should be ok, its 90% highway miles, I hardly ever abuse the engine, it doesnt burn or leak a drop and the oil on the dipstick doesnt smell like flaming poo yet. I even give it adequate warm up time before driving.
