Mobil 1 Oil Filter M1-114A
Inspired by the recent deal from Autozone Big Dave Autozone and by some conversations with @Kracka , I went down an internet rabbit hole investigating the oil filter internal bypass valve pressure rating. Here is what I've found:
1. Apparently Mobil 1 oil filters are no longer made by Champion Labs and now by Mann + Hummel
2. Some disparity in the pressure ratings of the M1-113A stated as 12 to 15 PSI, as opposed to many quotes over the years as to 22PSI
3. Much to my surprise is a new filter M1-114A which is an updated version of the 113A with 25PSI bypass pressure bypass valve.
4. The Mobil 1 website does not list the M1-114A. Neither does Amazon, Autozone or any other supplier but AdvancedAuto M1-114A link
edit: OEM ACDelco PF64 rated at 22PSI

I use the $6 ACDelco filter that GM recommends. If it was as bad as people on this Forum seem to think, we would see numerous engine failures. But we don't... how do you like that?

Excellent find, sir! This is actually huge news for the C7 & C8 communities and clears up nearly a decade's worth of confusion!

Am I reading this correctly?
Did the Champion Labs M113A have the correct bypass pressure for the C7 and C8s?

So, if this is confirmed, it means that the M113A made by Mann + Hummel does not have the correct bypass pressure for the C8 even though is is listed as the correct filter for the C8.

In 2017 I personally received confirmation from Champion Labs that their version of the 113A had a bypass of 22psi.
Looks like I'll be exchanging my latest 113A for a 114A! In the meantime, I'll just use the Fram XG12060 that I have as well.

I still have a couple of the Champion M113A filters but I'm hesitant to use them now.
I'll now be returning the two M+H M113A filters I got.

What is the bypass pressure spec of the OEM AC Delco filter?

My first filter change @ 2k miles was for another PF64 and I currently have a PF64 on the car right now from the included service @ 7k miles, but I'll be using the XG12060 next when I DIY as its rated 99% @ 20 micron (for comparison, the M1 is 99% @ 30 micron).
If you're not interested in premium aftermarket replacement oil filters, no need to even click on the thread considering it was titled accordingly

Last time I bought a PF64 filter it was $6.64 at Walmart. Not a bad price for a decent filter.

As stated, the UPF64R has a by-pass pressure setting of 35 psi, the PF64 has a by-pass pressure setting of 22 psi.
Although the UPF64R is sometimes used on the LT1/LT4 engines, it is not designed for the those engines. I believe andreas g is correct, it is designed for GM hybrids.

If you call Mobil1 filter technical support it will be answered by M+H support.
I have both the Champ Labs and M+H M113A filters and they are different.
