I have a 1997 Chevy Z71 I bought used and the previous owner changed out the engine (not sure but think it came out of a Chevy van?).
The engine is 5.7L.
Looking at Fram's website, why would the 4WD K1500 have a different oil filter than the "same" engine in a C1500 2WD?
Would either of these work since the gasket sizes are different?
The Fram XG5 specs:
Gasket I.D. 3.14"
Gasket O.D. 3.56"
Gasket Thickness.25"
Gasket Usage Base
Product Height 5.17"
Product I.D. 13/16-16 Th'd
Product O.D. 3.78"
while the Fram HM3980 specs:
Gasket I.D. 2.47"
Gasket O.D. 2.75"
Gasket Thickness .19"
Gasket Usage Base
Product Height 4.94"
Product I.D. 18mmx1.5mm Th'd
Product O.D. 2.98"
