Was curious if anything like this kit exists for our engines...

Universal Single-Remote Bypass System

Shop Universal Single-Remote Bypass System at AMSOIL. Find premium synthetic oil, filters and more online. Fast, free shipping available.

www.amsoil.com

However, since we do not use spin on oil filters I don't think a conversion kit exists to adapt/take oil to/from the canister.

Anyone know anything different?

Thanks.

Alright, so after some more research the approach for this engine is to remove the oil pressure sensor from the block. Install a T there, or there about, re-install pressure sensor, attach oil supply line that will route to the bypass filter. The return line from the filter runs into the a special oil filler cap that has a hose attached.

It seems this method would also work for the Amsoil universal bypass filter too.

Many thanks for the data and the availability of this mod, I am sure this would have warranty implications with Ford. I am a big believer in early oil changes as this is the life blood of the engine. No question better filtration is a great idea and keeps the oils cleaner for a longer period of time however it does not address the acidity processes the oil experiences over time as well as moisture.

Looks like setup for our F150 PS Diesels is discounted 20% ($583 to $466) for their CyberWeek sale:

Blue one is sold out but Red and Black are still available.

I have no affiliation or connection to Insane Diesel beyond my own curiosity....

Just to note - Amsoil claims a warranty shouldn't be denied because of using a different oil. Not sure how adding additional filtration would factor into that though...

I love by pass filtration, use the Parker Racor system on an older 7.3. I have not considered for 3.0 since it has a cartridge filter, historically a better full flow filter. Spin on filters are usually a spring by-pass type setup, good too, but like the name says it by-passes at certain pressures and lets the unfiltered oil go until pressures are met. Please keep us posted!

So I’m confused, I posted a thread where I had all of my pictures from my install with comments specifically related to the 3-way and other aspects but I can find them anywhere on this forum now. I’m stuck with just my phone and limited internet access this week but I’ll repost in a couple of weeks if that thread has actually disappeared.

@08Tiger - you did! I remember your posting more detailed pics than your Intro thread:

I searched by Discussions you started and only found your New Member Intro thread:
New Member, Longtime Lurker
I used Advanced Search capability within the site & found this thread you didn't start:
Oil Bypass System
- This is the thread with all of the excellent pictures
- You don't need to repost!
I will add a pointer from your New Member, Longtime Lurker intro thread to direct people to the Oil Bypass System thread for the treasure trove of professional pics!
