oil filter- bypass valve?
I am not positive, but I was under the impression that all of the filters
had bypass valves of some sort to prevent damage.
I was
thinking that too. In fact, I think it's harder to get a filter without
the bypass. I made a note to take a look at one of the
filters, and it may be pretty obvious whether it has a bypass.
By the way, your remote mount oil filter..
are you using a racing beat remote mount, or something from summit racing? or
did you fabricate a remote mount out of the stock filter "pedestal"
?
My remote
mount is using the stock filter "pedestal", and a stock 3rd gen filter
(because they're short, made for high pressure, and I still have a bag of
them).
I'm still
debating this whole air filter thing too (the reason for considering this
oil filter plumbing change). I think I've identified a way to install a
reasonably sized cone shaped air filter, but just haven't decided if it's
worth it. What I really need to do if prove whether I'm really only
getting 27" MAP at WOT.
