What kind of BS is this ? There are more than one indications that the cooler nor the accusump, nor the remote filter is the cause, such as the accusump fully disconnected having no influence on the pressure drop, such as the same pressure drop taking place with cold oil and the oil cooler not in play (lines to the cooler are cold where the lines from and to the thermostat are hot), such as the filter having no effect.Strange Magic wrote:Could be way to complex to do something that simple.I may have missed it, but have you ran the engine without the cooler and accusump? Just with a filter in the standard location?
Why does this engine need an oil cooler? If the oil temps are that hot, than fix it.
But as soon as I've got the time, I will fab up a line and connect directly to the filter and prove you wrong.
But in all your wisdom I would still like to know how the pump or any wet sump can be modified so that it needs no bypass.
And for the reason for an oil cooler, you should know that running high rpms gives high oil temps.
