Brownells has Federal (LC) M855 62 gr on special for $149 a 420 rnd can packed in 30 rnd boxes on strippers - this is current production and is good stuff. Buy 2 cans or something else for a $1 and you get free shipping ($150+ orders) - use code DGP when you check out. I'm sure this is a...

^^^ Sounds logical to me ;)

The assembly lube is fine to use, though there is better. Redline comes to mind ;) Stay away from the oil additives like the plague.

Use MLS - copper would have to be wired around the cylinder for a seal. Way too much work for zero gain. Never, ever use any kind of spray on sealer on a new MLS HG. It already has a viton coating - the spray sealer will destroy it.

Thanks Lane :) Take a close look at the port cover - it says "smile wait for flash" with a smiley face sporting a bullet hole in the forehead. LOL

Finally built myself an SPR: Specs: - Noveske N4 center section (upper & lower) - Lothar Walther 18" stainless steel barrel, 1-8 twist, Wylde chamber and matched bolt. Modified V-Tac barrel for Ops Inc suppressor collar w/ Ops Inc compatible Vortex flash hider - PRI Carbon Fiber Forearm...

You could also try and read some of the threads here (esp the stickies) and Motor Oil 101 (link in my sig), then you could make up your own mind. A novel idea, I know - just a thought ;)

That is my mistake looking at your diagram - I assumed the vertical green line was a typo and the Trasco was connected in a series like the stock filter head. Since you did mean it was in parallel, it is not a good example. The vertical green line is an unbroken feed on a single line in the...

Yes, the Trasko will work as shown in your new diagram. This is exactly the configuration if you simply replace a conventional filter with a Trasko at the stock location. I used the cooler relief valve as an example because it is exactly how the valve in the Trasko works - the difference is...

First, the flow of electrons and fluid dynamics are like apples & oranges - not even close to make an analogy. In electricity resistance, the result is heat - in fluid dynamics, resistance results in pressure. Please dump the comparison. Also consider fluid behavior at a manifold - a dual...

As stated, input pressure is going to be constant across both filters on a dual head - as long as input pressure to the Trasko is above it's critical pressure for the valve to operate, oil is going to flow through it at the ratio stated above. Look at the valve in the Trasko like the one on the...

Critical pressure for the Trasko to go into bypass is only 8-16 psi - it's controlled by a spring actuated valve that regulates pressure differential in the range of an Input/Output of 1.00 : 0.89 (i.e if the input pressure was 80 psi the output pressure from the Trasko is 71.20 psi). This...

The Trasco is a bypass filter by defination. They market it as a replacement for a conventional filter and it will work that way - I would not use it in that manner myself. On a dual filter head, it essentially becomes a dedicated bypass with the advantage of full flow filtration from the...

That looks good to me ;)

Huh? Not too sure what you're talking about there grasshopper. There is more than sufficient pressure across a dual head for the Trasko. Like I said, flow is restricted anyway due to the orifice built into the Trasko.

A higher volume filter is really not going to do much for you - all it will have is more filter media surface area. A dual filter head feeds both filters equally. With a Trasko on one side, most of the oil will flow through the other (full flow) filter due to the intrinsic restriction of the...

Fram filters are crap - wouldn't be caught dead using one. Both filters you are showing are full flow, not a lot of point in that. I would use a remotely located dual filter head with a full flow and Trasko bypass filter (filters to 1 micron). You can use a Wix or PureOne filter as the full...

Napa Gold is made by Wix ;)

Ummm - you WANT to use a straight 30W oil for the initial break-in. Below quote form the break-in sticky - post #6: Also, there is no way that you can "load the engine with all the addatives in the oil" - it's simply not possible. SAE studies do point that change your oil too frequently will...
