bypass filters

[jvjump]

I want to add some bypass filters to my truck what are my options. I am doing this to help control soot. With the truck turned up over 500hp the oil gets dirty pretty quick.

Of course you will hear alot of people selling AMSOIL bypass. I have not had a bit of trouble from my AMSOIL BMK11 single bypass. It is high quality construction, not to mention amsoil filters are in my opinion the best filters on the market today. Do your research like you are doing and good luck to you.

Is your oil pressure staying the same with the bypass on? And can i still but on the bypass system with the twins on? Does anyone have pic of bypass location on a 03 or newer with twins?

With twins, your only issue will be room and getting an oil source. Since you will most likely use both ports on the filter head for feeding the turbos, you will most likely need to tee into the port the oil pressure sender is located.



Since you will be hurting for room because of the twins, you can either mount it on the driver's side, down behind the front bumber, down under the ruck on the frame or crossmember, or under the bed.



I have been running a bypass for roughly 60k now... I have seen no drop in pressure... you should either have a 0. 040" restriction orifice or make one to keep the flow of oil slow... around a quart per minute.

I installed one in my 04. 5 about three months ago. I installed it behind the bumper onthe outside of the frame. no problems so far.

JH8128 set up is nice. Maybe I can get his brother tomarrow put a picture up of it. He drilled into the intake tube into the head and tapped and to bolt directly to it.
