I just don't like the weak relief valve, I remember reading somewhere that these engines were supposed to have 70 PSI at cruise (2000) If this information is correct then you're turning your main filter into a bypass filter by letting mostly unfiltered oil circulate. Plus the If I remember correctly the oil cooler rear header has a bypass valve in it. Or I may be on crack, I don't know.

K&N used to advertise the micron rating but stopped.
Maybe cause there rating was not so accurate, so much easier to
remove lousy advertisment than pay court cost and related fees.

AMSOIL EAO99 PSD filter is 98.7 ABSOLUTE at removing particles larger than 15 micron.

A spin on bypass oil filter? Could this be an idea that makes someone a milloinaire?:eek:

I went to Canadian Tire AND Walmart and you can NOT get a proper IDI filter ANYMORE. I asked why adn they said the demand was too low.

I HAD to buy a PSD filter.....at an extra $4 over what the IDI filter was? Buncha retards.

Anyways, I ran a Baldwin filter last time, the proper one for an IDI and I plan on going back to Parts For Trucks and buying a CASE of them.....no more fram, wix or fleetguards for Goofy!!
