I ended up replacing the distributor shaft on my vortec 350 my dad recently bought a 454 tht needs a tune up and since my new distributor came with a new cap and rotor we were wondering if the 454 used the same cap and rotor ( they have maybe 2,000 miles on them)

  87 still at $5.49 this morning. Reportedly, the WH offered Iran cash today to keep calm in the newly-developing scuffle with Israel. Iran said no. So I guess we all get to pay for this war out of our own pockets for even longer. This country has become so weak it's embarrassing.

  Right, I know Demonworks youtube channel talked about the the new pan design, I just never knew when that came out but your right that in theory it should drain out more. The neighbor that has the 2022 model 3.0 drives his front end up on blocks and made the comment that it more than likely drains out better due to where the drain plug is situated to have the front end up on his series of truck.

  No, have not cut open any filters. Truly, I don't want to know. I'm treating the engine as if it's going to last and be kept a long time. For now, I'm doing short intervals during break-in which will gradually extend to about 3000-3500. I'm allowing this current interval to go 2,000 and change again at 5k. I use the access port to wiggle the flex plate like described in the TSB, and I watch for metal in the drain pan, but that's it. So far so good, but I'm not out of the forest yet. Most of the affected engines seem to fail before 10k.
