I have some PF47 equivalent filters leftover from our sold Impala. Any reason to not use them on the Tahoe? Thanks
PF47 and PF52

Nevermind...I thought you had an LS1 engine in it.
You have the Vortec 350 .

Cool, that's what I figured thanks.

Yes Vortec is correct

Use them up no problem.
Keep in mind the PF47 has a lower holding capacity than PF52, probably around 30-50% higher for the larger filter so I wouldn't try any extended chnages on the shorter filter unless the engine is extremely well maintained.
The holding capacity would be my only concern.
For the Fram Ultra sized cross reference the smaller filter is 10 grams(XG3387A) and the larger one is 13-15 grams (XG3980) fwiw, since I use those same two filters for my Buick.

Thanks for the info. I have some PF52 classics I plan to use first. I was looking for info since I have the leftover Wixs and Carquest Wixs. I didn't want to give them away.
