Oil filter sizes for many engines have become smaller over the years as technology advances. For my 305 Chevy 3rd Gen Camaro, I currently choose to use one of the larger sizes. One of my viewers asked why I do this. I thought it was a good time to make the comparison of what has been used on Chevrolet engines over the years. I included some comparison with my GM based Mercruiser engines as well.
I explain what the factors are in choosing an oil filter and what to watch out for. Some filters have anti-drainback valves and some have bypass valves. Choosing the wrong filter can damage your engine.
There is also a factor called Beta Ratio that measures the efficiency of the filtration of each filter. I will show what that factor is and where you can find it in the filter specs.
NOTE: You must be careful, because if you don't use the correct filter from the catalog, the filter warranty will be voided.
