These are AC Delco oil filters too.

I use a AC Delco PF52 (on my normally PF47 3.4), and I run with 5 quarts of oil. My brother does the same thing with his 3.8 and no problems there.

Bigger filter = more room to trap crap in engine, and more oil.

my manual says 4.5 but at my old job, we always put in 5 in the 3.8L of firebirds and camaros and it came out perfectly, everytime, every single time.

I don't even put in 5 quarts in mine and I use the 4.3 filter too, I put in a little over 4.5

I used to have a Jaguar XJ6 that took almost 9 quarts of oil!
