I know the AC DElco PF47 and PF52 is interchangeable since I've owned 3 Luminas, 2 Blazers and I maintain my Mom's Buick Century. I accidentally discovered this several years ago by accident when I was changing the oil in my 96 Blazer(PF52) and 95 Lumina (PF47) at the same time and noticed they where same diameter.My 05 Uplander calls for the PF47 but there is plenty of room for the longer PF52, which was also the case on the other cars. I know the advantage to the larger one is that it allows slightly more oil to be in the engine and possibly more filter media.I know it's an excercise in futility to try to figure out why GM uses the smaller one when the larger one fits but there has to be a reason.There are numerous other applications for other makes that allow a larger filter than OEM recomends besides GM. Is there any advantage to using the smaller filter? As usual thanks in advance.
