Thats part of the reason I was thinking about throwing on the amsoil system bc I am not sure it makes enough pressure to adequately filter out the contaminants at 40psi max. These things are tricky there doesn’t seem to be much information out there on them heck I haven’t even been able to find a pressurized oil port yet I have to do some more digging. Thank you everyone for the reply’s

How’s the paccar?

So far so good. 130k on the motor. Myself and a handful of guys I know are running the 485/1850 mx13 mostly 2017 and 2018 models running close to 80k legal in dump trucks. Most have had very good luck I know one guys dropped a valve at 200k and a few have had issues with water pumps and external accessories. As far as longevity it’s still too early to tell but most of the Owners I have spoken to plan on upgrading equipment before the engines hit 400k.
