first attempt at a real oil cooling circuit (need approval)

120 psi for a cold start is a little on the high side don't ya think

Only happens during the cold winter months JD. I believe IJ said he uses moroso filters to handle this issue as well.
I suppose I could also use a lower viscosity, but once it warms up after a few seconds it's all good! Next winter I may use a tad thinner oil....maybe.:biglaugh: :evil2:

IJ uses a CM filter iirc:

Good stuff...will handle about anything you throw at it

I have that thermostat and it leaks. It leaked from day one. I would buy a different brand if I were to do it again.

I have the Canton remote but Ant is correct I use the Moroso thick case filters.

I remember you telling me this when I told you about the high pressure IJ. What filter number is that IJ. I think I will just use this as a replacement filter to handle cold starts....epsecially in the winter.

The billet thermostat by Earls is a good unit. It's one solid piece, and is sold by summit. The cast units I found to leak, and the mocal units leaked the worst. Could have been a bad batch the guy said, but they did take them back.

Ahhh...I stand corrected. The Moroso filter looks pretty good...especially for the pressures you guys are running

Edit: BTW - do you guys happen to know at what psi the by-pass opens in the Moroso filter?
