Even in normal wear and tear a magnetic will pick up small particles that you would not normally want circulating. If something gets seriously destroyed the big chunks will most likely end up in the oil filter or oil pan.

My '04 z06 didnt come with one, and I had to order it. Only difference is it was easy to find..


But then again SVT 4.6L's cost twice what an LS6 costs so you'd think it might come with one
