Oil pressure

[Chevy305]

I have to run some thick oil in order to get decent oil pressure like 20-50. I blame the low oil pressure on this oil additive I used for two oil changes, "Engine Restore" the stuff did jack **** and made my engine worse than it was, but the engine still runs like a million bucks even if it has A LOT of miles on it.

I'm running castrol oil and fram oil filters and I'm going off a sunpro gauge.

I'd run with either an AC oil filter or a Wix, or Purolator. They are all superior to the Fram...

I could start picking the ac delcos up from work, do you happen to know off the top of your head which filter I would need?

 

[tRustyK5]

Whatever it calls up for your 350. I can't recall the pn#, but it's by far the most common filter out there.

I'll have to dig the book out and look it up.

Thanks.

Remember as well that the Napa Gold line of filters is made by Wix. They are a very high quality filter, and long lasting as well.

I like bosch filters too..I'll never use a fram again.. I had one that had a "dimple" where the o - ring seats.. I found that out the hard way, after I changed the oil on the wife's durango, and promptly lost most of it when it got up to a high enough pressure..

the guy at the parts store saw the f'ed up filter, and said, " that shouldn't happen".. well, no crap.. anyway, he gave me a bosch, and all was well..

never had an issue with AC's either..

there is 70K something on my truck and there has allways been a fram on it. Never once had a problem with them.
