Anyone use a bigger filter on their car? I just changed my oil for the first time the other day and noticed the filter was very tiny. I also noticed that there was a lot of room from the edge of the filter before it would be in contact of anything. I wonder if say the filter style that is on my '01 Silverado would fit becaus it is something like 1.5" longer. I use to run larger filters on my Jeep. Actually used a filter that was for a earily 80's Ford V8.

I guess as long as the thread opening size is the same and it fits in the space; then go for it

when I get the time I will look into it.

Thread size and opening are things to consider. Another part of a filter is the ABDV which may or may not be needed in all applications. Your post is probably better suited for bobistheoilguy.com as people on that site are more in to stuff like this.
