Bypass

Hi Duanne
I have used that exact set up for 4 years with no issues. I also use 70 lucas. There are 3 different screens for that filter . WE found at first we had a fine screen and it would scavenge slow. Changed to a coarse screen and all is good, about 6 qts in the motor and 12 in the tank all the time. We will be at Shakedown this weekend , if your there come check it out.
Good Luck Bruce.

 

yeah like Bruce said only problem filtering back to the tank is slow scavenge, may have to drain the oil pan between rounds to put back to your dry sump tank.

 

yes you really do need to check oil level in tank after evey pass and drain pan to fill tank back to proper level it only cost me a new crank
