Don't be concerned about the filter's physical size, what is important are media micron pore size, the filter's rated flow rate, and the media quality. Either of these filters are more than sufficient for use on a big V8 engine such as the GM LS unit, their flow rates are way beyond what the oiling system can move, and their media is considerably finer in pore size than the factory filter.
Interesting, I had ordered the wix 51348 because that was the cross reference for the filter they gave me. Maybe it doesn’t make a difference but I do not have the ims solution, just a regular adapter. I just ordered the wix
51042xp. Maybe the issue can be resolved with the right filter?
