A question for both of you. On the dual filter system, the side for the bypass filter has a plug with a hole drilled in it to limit oil from entering the bypass. The main filter side has no plug. I tried to unscrew the plug at installation time but could not get it to break loose. Since my factory filter is doing most of the filtering I don't think it would hurt to remove the plug. Due to the limiting effect of the 3/8" supply line I don't think a lot of oil is getting to either AMSOil filter.
Your ideas?
As I looked at your first post, I thought you had the (BMK-22), which is the "Dual-Gard" Filtration System. This system has the restricter Orifice plugs in both sides where the filters screw on. The purpose of these restricters is to
reduce the flow, and maintain pressure of oil to the filter elements, which are much finer filters. (2 MICRON)
apparently, the mount you have was designed as a "DUEL-REMOTE", where the one filter element is a "FULL-FLOW", meaning the entire flow of oil is flowing through the element at a high rate of flow, (NO RESTRITOR PLUG) and the other with the restricter Orifice plug, again used to reduce the flow of oil to that filter element.
As I see it, you are not getting the filtration you want, as this system was not designed to connect it the way you have it connected. Again, in my opinion, you would be better off getting the BMK-22 mount, which you can buy separately. In the long run, you would be better off, rather than try to modify the mount you have.
