Oil Bypass Filter LS

Anyone had or is currently running an oil bypass filter that uses toilet paper, like Frantz or Amsoil or Kleenoil or Jack Master on their LS?

I hadn’t seen kits like these before. I’m sure i’ve seen supplementary filter kits that run a finer filter element and i had thought it was a Donaldson kit though can’t find anything through google. What application are you thinking of using it in? Street? Track/drag?

i just took one off a 4×4 been round for eons seem to filter out carbon real well if you select the right roll of shit paper :D.

Yes I admit I’m fussy about which brand I use for the Job as well!

Street, I run ethanol exclusively and a bypass filter takes the water out of the oil completely, plus filters below 20 micron where most harmful crap occurs. So one of these refineries plumbed from the ready-made LS bypass port makes sense with this build.

Also I’m planning a decent low maintenance air oil seperator which returns to oil system, but of course would like to refine the effluent feed. Toilet paper seems a forgotten option  :bye:
