According to PML, the stock pan is 4.3" deep - (PML info):Â Dimensions:Â at deepest area, PML pan is 7 inches, stock pan is 4.3 inchesÂ
Â
PPE is 5.4" so roughly 1.1" deeper than stock
I had not realized that PPE has come out with a version of a cast aluminum oil pan specific to being able to fit onto the 10L1000 with the L8T engine sometime this spring. I was doubting that anyone would come out with something beyond what Dorman had in more of a direct factory pan swap. I see from one comment that is on the PPE site that they found the pan to be tighter to install then the factory unit and having to flex the exhaust down to fit it. I didn't lookup any specs if they have any as per how much lower it hangs but as it holds more oil and has fins outside the pan it would no doubt hang a certain amount lower.Â
Â
I looked back at the site and they do have some depth measurements to get a rough comparison to the factory pan total height or hang down if you will at the front and rear of the pan so that will give a good idea how much further down this pan would end up being for ground clearance issues.Â

I'm in constant amazement over the number of people that do oil maintenance by how they feel, what they were told, what materials cost, what brand A claims vs brand B. Â
Â
Come to think of it, this behavior isn't exclusive to oil. 🤔 They drive this way too. 😬

There is a 20 plus page thread on BITOG on Mobil 1 Advanced Clean vs Valvoline Restore and Protect it would be amusing if it were not so........humanly pitiful.

Last Sunday we were are sitting at services and listening to a speaker talk about Jesus parable of the wide and narrow gates and he said something that hadn't dawned on me but totally fit the way people in general are about just about everything. He said there are so few people on the narrow path leading to a good reward not because the the narrow gate was hidden or hard to find but because the wide gate leading to a bad end it so darn easy and uncomplicated to follow!!!Â

I had Bilstein 4600's on my 2020 Chevy and has the Rancho's on my 2025 GMC. Softer unloaded ride on the Rancho's, better control towing with the Bilsteins. Wife of course prefers the plusher ride.
