The
oil system has been a long drawn out process for me to sort out being dry sumped I have been playing mind games on whether to fit cooler on pressure or scavenge side, and what
oil filter to use.
The outcome (today) is to run Cooler and the Canton 40gpm thermostat here in not so hot NZ, on the pressure side, going through a Canton remote cannister
oil filter.
After looking at all the different Oil filters, and its really obvious if you are serious about racing then you dont put a std filter on your car, generally people seem to use a good K&N, Moroso, Wix, Motorcraft, Fram HP and on it goes, the micron rating can vary from around 18 to 61 for the Wix Racing filter, also a lot of racers use stainless screen filters or around 30 - 45 micron, as they depend on oil flow to keep the engine alive...!
Looking at the Canton Cannister style filters for my primary engine oil supply, one of which I have just purchased, I wonder why more people dont use these, as they flow 45gpm which is more flow than most filters and filter down to 8 microns and look a quality product, plus are quite compact compared to an HP6 Filter and remote adapter.!
It seems as they have the spectrum covered both in flow and filtering with the type of filter material and deep filtering design.
PS: Jac Mac I am going to keep an Aeroquip adapter in the tool kit if the oil cooler blows...LOL
