Ok, it was just info, Ive seen the old ads also, thought they were like the by-pass filtration set-ups and were only intended for the older engines that had no oil filter, period.

5 qts of oil thru a .060" restriction at 45 psi?,-- I'm gonna just guess less than 20 minutes to empty the pan, maybe even faster. Think about unhooking your oil pressure line and putting it into a catch container, it'll fill a 16 oz bottle in less than 2 minutes.

Got to tell ya I do the same on the hot rods, I do change before black but color is the way I go. I'm more of a brown guy on this ..

DoubleVision is all over this ..
