The seal that comes on the oil filter is what's blowing out looks like a tongue sticking out if the filter when it happens. Both were ac delco filters now have a Napa Gold and fingers crossed it hasn't happened yet.

Where would I get just the gasket for the 1" nut? Are u speaking of what the filter screws onto?

What would you run instead of 20-50?

Car has stock oil pump, dont have a oil pressure gauge but getting one. Was running AC delco filter just switched to Napa Gold and running Valvoline VR1 20-50 non synthetic. Dont see 2 seals

Ok guys had to get a new crank due to spun bearing. didnt change pistons only rering stock ones put a roller cam kit in it with heavier valve springs. Car is pretty stock. We keep blowing the o ring out on the oil filter on cold start up on AC Delco filters. My father just put a Napa Golf filter...

Is this pipe better than the G body parts? I heard the G body pipe has issues rubbing and is very tight? Sure wish I could find a Rerry Houston pipe.

Ok guys I have the motor out due to spun main bearing. We are doing a roller cam kit, new turbo, injectors and new chip. I have the 5.7 Turbo Tweak by Eric Marshall now I know it will have to be reburned but the guy doing all of the work swears by Red's chip because they run open loop and allows...

I posted on another board in here but need some opinions. Spun # 1 main bearing and in process of new forged crank keeping stock pistons just re-ringing new turbo and roller cam kit. There was some metal in the motor but would that metal have gone through the oil cooler in the radiator? Just...

Ok I changed my mind from a Comp roller cam kit to the Isky Billet Cam kit. Do I use the tensioner or not?

I'm not looking at the roller cam for performance but more of reliability and something that will last for many years to come. Why not do it now then to go with Flat tappet cam and have nightmares?
