Whats up Everyone?
As always im pressed for space and need to relocate my oil filter.
Ive never run a remote filter before, never had a need too until now. I got a Dual filter adapter from a buddy and was going to reuse it since it was free... but then he told me of the reson he removed it was because it was causing a 8lb drop in his oil pressure on his buick. I argued he must have had one toooo many 90* fittings in there for that to happen, but iI looked at his install and it was fairly straight and short with -10 AN lines and hi-flow fittings with a nice Derale spin on adapter.. he has since gone back to a biggie adapter and regular filter and pressure came back up.
Adapter uses 2 STP S-25s or fram PH11 /25
is this too much filter for a buick? or is the extra 2 feet of line the problem?
help me out with this
