Thanks for the clarification guys, I think I had another post in mind when I replied to this one LOL. Being that had nothing workwise to do out here in Iraq, I was monitoring like 10 different post hehe....

I have the amsoil remote bypass filter mounted under the drivers side outboard on the frame. I'm also running 5w-40 synthetic. I had 16000 miles on my last set of filters and oil, it was still clean and golden. I coated the filters and mount with spray on grease and they were easy to take off with no rust or corrosion.

If you want to do it inexpensively and with some quality, take a look at how I installed my bypass system:
SpringerPop's Lube Bypass Filter
Others on here have duplicated it easily.

I'm very leery of using the LOP to provide the flow required for a bypass oil filter. After 10 years of towing with my old F350 at WOT for many miles at a stretch while climbing mountain grades and monitoring oil temp at the oil filter filing I wouldn't want to lose even 5% of the LOP's flow capability.
I've looked at bypass systems for my C7 but when I watch the ICP and LOP pressures as I climb grades at WOT I see that it's taking all the flow the LOP can provide to run the injectors! Why doesn't someone invent a bypass system that uses an electric oil pump to suck from the pan through the dip stick hole and return through the filler tube? That way you can bypass a higher flow rate and there's no high pressure leaks to worry about!

Some bot dropped a script into the HTML pages.
I've re-loaded the site, and it's clean, FOR NOW, but looks like I'm going to have to have a little talk with my web host folks.
There should never be any pop-ups or java scripts running on my site. It's simplicity, itself.

From what's written at the bottom of page 4 here... http://www.motorcraftservice.com/vdi...iagnostics.pdf ... it seems that the HPOP must be supplied by the LPOP and that a weak flow from the LPOP causes ICP issues? However on my F350 I was referring to flow rate vs temp.
On my C7 I've got a real-time read out of both LPOP pressure and ICP and when I pull at WOT (especially in hot weather) to get my 33K GCW up a long grade I notice a decrease in LPOP pressure and sometimes if it's very hot the ICP also decreases. This only occurs at higher RPM under full load when the injectors are requiring a higher oil flow and it doesn't seem to occur when I pull a pretty steep grade at lower RPM in 6th or 5th gear.
I'm wondering how well an electric fuel pump would work as an oil pump for a "powered" bypass filter system which could also include a cooler?
