Folks and fellas, I cannot find the Relief valve pressure on the Bosch D3334 oil filter ANYwhere. My car (2017 Volt) requires a Ac-Delco UPF64r oil filter, or equivalent, something to do with relief valve pressure. After googling, maybe I am not looking in the right spot, but I cant seem to find this info anywhere......
Bosch D3334 Relief Valve Pressure??

It's a reboxed P1, so see what Purolator says the pressure is 
"Yes"
Lmao thats the only thing I found too... "Yes".
It's a Purolator. The media itself is the bypass valve
You're seeking oil filters which can substitute for the AC Delco one specified, yes?
I suggest looking at Hastings and Wix and I'll tell you why.
When my sister got her 2012 Mazda with the "1998 cc" Skyactiv engine, every filter manufacturer stated the older filter from the earlier 2.0l 4 cylinder engines would work. They screwed on just fine.
However, the bypass pressure on the new engines' filters was changed (lowered, IIRC).
It took Hastings and Wix 6 months or more to field a substitute with the correct by-pass pressure.
I trust Hastings and Wix. Try those.

I ended up buying the stupid AC-Delco UPF64R oil filter like a stupid idiot, and putting it on. I figured better safe than sorry.
Buying a "known correct" filter to stay within spec isn't stupid at all.
"...better safe than sorry" is the opposite of stupid. It's wise. thrifty and lotsa gals think it's sexy.
