iirc, you block off the output of the pump, has a bypass on the cover, and from here it goes to a remote filter, and goes back in thru one of the galley plugs on the case..... bypassing the stock oil filter passages...
not 100% sure that is all the way correct |

Back in Dino days...
It was using a bypass that would allow oil to continue recirculating if pressure/flow became too much for the filter and stopped up the works. |

Howard, you have it backward. What you described is how the stock oil system works. Full flow means all oil goes through the filter.

My first thought ( haven't thought or talked about it for years) was the same as McMark's statement. I'm getting old, and I used to know more stuff than I do now. Hell, I can barely type anymore.
