Something I forgot to make note of on the internals of these filters.
I have noted in the lpast that the PF63 on the Silverado (many years and tons of applications) and the PF64 which is used on my 1.5T Equinox are more similar than I had originally thought. Based on data I have seen from AC...

My first 2 post mortems were on a UPF63R from my L8T Silverado HD and a 64XL Champ filter from my 1.5L Equinox.
The 63 had a surprisingly robust base plate. Both filters were the exact same construction with...
