    Acdelco PF63 C&P

    This filter was used on my wife’s GMC Yukon (108,xxx miles) for about 4,500 miles. Interesting enough there’s no ripples on the bypass valve. I said if they had issues with that I would change to PG, but I’m happy with it, so I’ll continue to run them. Also this is the newer style one they...

    Amsoil syn blend 0w20 4.4k mi; Sierra 2014 6.2L 105.7k mi

    This oil was ran for 4,377 miles with an acdelco pf63 filter. Some more than normal (to me) idle time, mostly around town, but got some highway miles in probably 65/35. Amsoil syn blend 0w20/ pf63 went back in/on. Also did the afm/dod delete @ 99,6xx miles, so silicon is still around. Truck had...

    2014 Sierra 6.2 afm/dod delete

    Well after dropping my 3rd lifter in 9 months I made the decision to do a BTR delete kit (BTR L86 delete cam) with GM performance LS7 lifters. It’s definitely time consuming, but shouldn’t have anymore issues now. Here’s a few pics of the progress. I replaced almost everything I could while I...

    C&P on K&N select I was using when lifter failure occurred

    Here’s a few photos of the K&N select filter that was on my 2014 6.2 Sierra when the lifter dropped about 850 miles ago. This is actually the second lifter that has dropped running this filter (not blaming just stating). Idk the mileage that I ran on it because I wasn’t focused on that part...

    Acdelco Pf63 C&P

    Okay so my first time ever cutting open an oil filter. I’m far from good at this. This filter was ran on my 6.2L Sierra directly after fixing the lifter failure for 500 miles with my dealers bulk 0w20. You can see down in the can some sparkles that the filter caught. If you’d like a certain...

    Welp my truck just "dropped" a lifter

    I was driving home and I accelerated through a yellow light (that I couldn't have stopped in time anyways). I got out of the truck, and heard a noticable tick that wasn't there when I left work. I shut the truck off, and fired it back up still ticking. I called a good friend of mine who is a gm...
