Didn't know the new 5.3l held that much oil. I looking forward to the catch can I'd like to put one on my 2000 5.3l and maybe going to the larger oil filter. Kam's spot on this time! ✌🏻
Got an elite catch can on my 5.3L 23 Sierra elevation , I run Amsoil but I still got the factory weight oil in there for now , but Iv def wondered about switching to 5-30 just hesitant while it’s under warranty and possible effecting the DFM and VLOM systems still doin my homework on that one
Correct me if I am wrong but I believe GM went to the 0w20 to help with the AFM lifter collapsing due to the thicker oil gumming them up. I prefer to change my oil every 3k and have never had a problem.
I’m am a amsoil fan. And it comes in one gallon jugs so it makes it easier to do your oil changes cost more but I only charge my oil once a year and about a thousand miles a year and I have piece of mind
@@TWAMotorsports Yes, I've been doing it that way since I worked at a local service station quite a few decades ago. Never had a leak or a gasket stick to the engine block.
I stopped using that water at about 18K miles on my 2018 6.2. I started using 5w 20 only because it is supposedly more stable than the 0w 20. The last two oil changes I've used 5w 30. No issues, and I feel like I get less oil in my elite catch can. Oil press is a little higher at idle, but not at speed. I also use Amsoil Signature Series and change it after 6 months or 5,000 miles. Both Ford Tech Make U loco and Ford Boss Me agree on the 6 months or 5,000 miles.
I agree with u man on the interval Change . I have used Amsoil sig series for the past 17 years I changed it in my old truck every 6 months . Was never past 7000 miles in that time frame . My old truck lasted 226k and when the body and frame rotted the engine and trans was still running . I actually blew it up doin a burnout for 5 min without letting off ( brand new set of tires lol ) and it finally puked out all the oil in the exhaust prob from valve float and spun something on the lower end but took massive abuse before it let go
Amsoil definitely for the oil, also Amsoil or Wix oil filter. Amsoil sells Wix oil filters as well. What issues have you had when trying to buy Amsoil?
0w20 MB1 in my Nissan ..MB1 filter two. Live in S. Texas. Unbelievably hot climate. No issues...158,000 currently. 196,000 on a Chevy Cruze (Turbo) 10k OCI. Too frequent changes defeats the purpose IMO...idk, it works for me the way the product says it will.
Adding an oil catch can to the 5.3L V8 is a bad idea, since the current V8's have a two stage oil separator built into the block! I assume the larger V8 is identical
It needs a catch can! Put a J & L OSC on them and look at what they are running back through the intake. No need for that oil to be put through the intake.🍻
funny enough, the XP is actually worse for your engine long term. the filter efficiency is much worse on the XP line. bob is the oil guy forms has nick named it a rock catcher. best filter on the market at the moment is the fram ultra guard(walmart), fram titanium(advance auto) or the fram endurance (walmart) all data backed up by iso tests on bitog forums.
We do it the same except I use my quick jacks to lift it. Kam''s a pro.
I need a set of quik jacks.
Cam for the win!
Lol. We practiced
OMG that’s corvette is insane 😎🔥
Greeting from Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦
Thank you
Catch can is a must!
I need one

Kam is a future star! Yeah it is a lot of oil!
@@TWAMotorsports for sure ✌🏻

I will probably do a mighty mouse one eventually
Awesome!! You ever think about switching oil brands?
I really like mobil 1
You need a long neck funnel for the 5.3, it really helps
I agree

You may be right. They still fail though.

I think they make great stuff
I also put oil on the filter gasket but I remove it from the filter and coat both sides.
Interesting

Amsoil makea great stuff. Just hate the buying process.
@@TWAMotorsports pay for the preferred customer account I order online shows up next day
Amsoil definitely for the oil, also Amsoil or Wix oil filter. Amsoil sells Wix oil filters as well. What issues have you had when trying to buy Amsoil?
What tint do you have on the sides and windshield of the Sierra?
5% on all except Windshield which is 35%
What y’all think bout royal purple 5w30 with K&n oil filter for a 2019 sierra Denali 6.2
I'm sure it is good too
I put a catch can on my 6.2 and deleted AFM. I hope it last and last. Love Wix
That won't hurt
My 2023 6.2 has a 7,500 mile change programmed. Do you all suggest 5,000?

I need to know what brand of gloves you always use I’ve never seen them ripped 😂😂 mine always does no matter the brand!
9 mill. List them in the description of all my videos

Not sure they work great though
Wix xp is for towing
Bingo
I think your neighbor cut grass every time you make a video 😂

I do need a catch can.
@@TWAMotorsports Ya it doesn't need that crap recirculated back through the motor, I was surprised at how much it pulls out....
I will probably get a mighty mouse catch can
@@TWAMotorsports I'm surprised you don't have them on all them vehicles....
@jimmytwotone2127 I really should

I always drop a quart of Lucas in.
That's a good idea too
Not a fan unless it is really miles up
@@TWAMotorsports may I ask why
@imathreat209 just not a product I have seen results in on a lower mileage unit.
5-30 ain't going to hurt it at all. I've ran 0-20 and 5-30 in my silverado. I'm almost positive it's just for peak performance for the oil weight.
That is kinda what I'm thinking
yep CAFE standards. Why does the Camaro and Vette with the 6.2 call for 5w 30?@@TWAMotorsports
0w20 is too thin, cam, rockers and lifters wont last long.
I agree. What do you suggest?
My 2023 6.2 has a 7,500 mile change programmed. Do you all suggest 5,000?
7500 is too many in my opinion
