I really don't see an advantage to doing this. GM designed your car for one type of oil filter...I'd stick with that.

The only difference will be something like an extra 200 mL (if that) of oil capacity. It'* not like that is going to make any difference whatsoever.

200mL is 200mL.. its better than nothing .

i also know the filter off a 93 s15 w/ the 2.3l v6 will fit, ive been running that since i got the car... the K&N gold filter number for that is like an HP2001 i beleive

there is a greater filtering area so you get more flow and a few more PSI. I suppose it would let you run with dirty oil for a little longer, other than that I dont see any benefits.

The bigger filter gets you more filter area... duh... That'* always good. I've used it since I got the 93. Depending on the oil filter adapter the you have installed it may or may not have clearance issues.

Wait, I swear I've said this exact thing before. Someone search it up, Because last time I showed pictures too.

There is No room on my 93 L27 to fit the 4.3 filter FYI

Not more PSI......more flow, yes, but a clogged filter or smaller filter will created higher pressure, not the other way around. High pressure is an indicator of lack of flow. Think of them as opposite relationships.

It'* a per car thing. Surf around GM Tuners.com or what ever that guys' site is. He'* got pictures of the different ones.

by higher i meant lower

Fits fine on my 93 SLE..... Build date june 93

Yeah if the filter got hit by something, i'd have major frame damage issues. http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/371721/2
