New Product!!! GM Duramax Deep oil pan
- Thread starter Dan@PPE
- Start date
Where you live it still might but it can't hurt imo.im more curious if the summer heat while towing will still well over come the added cooling from the pan. id definitely like to see first hand how it does. just have to buy one and get it on
2 more qts over their standard pan, which is what we are comparing. Unless you have a lifted truck, with the front diff dropped down, their deep pan won't fit. But with our pan, it will fit on a stock height or even lowered truck.
At stock rpm range I think the upper pan controls windage fine. At higher rpm maybe not so much.
My biggest reason for wanting to try this is my low oil pressure more than temp or windage issues (if anyone thinks this will help that if they believe it to be an issue even). 250kpa at 1800 rpm isn't quite enough as at 1600 it's down to 210kpa. 194kpa is opening pressure for the squirter which is just a bit too close for my liking.

Compared to efi logs which bounce around mine is pretty close.
What's the skinny on your lmm? Stock? Big tires?
My LMM oil pressure gauge is way of from what EFI log shows. My gauge barely ever goes above 35ish and the log will show 60.

If my truck is a qt or so low on oil, the oil pressure is 5-10 lb higher so I'm guessing adding oil would do the same?
I'm sorry I don't understand your question. Can you please word it a bit different so i can help?
If my truck is a quart low on oil it will raise the oil pressure 5-10 psi.
So I'm guessing when you add more oil it will have the same concept.

Dan, I couldnt find it thru all the arguing, but how did you guys find an extra quart of capacity without making the pan any deeper? Or is it another inch or so deeper and Im not seeing it?
