Geez, first give me a chance to buy what you already offer. (already got your pmd with cooler) You should make this a kit for people like me, what else is needed to make it a complete setup? A feed line and return line? And oh yeah you should make this a bolt on kit haha.
Thanks for the heads up on the bypass filter, I want it!

Will this by pass filter help with keeping the oil cleaner? My oil is always black.
oil in a diesel will always be black as cola,, it's the soot it collects, that's why you should never use anything but diesel spec oil, it is designed to collect the soot.
I will probaly make a kit up, just have to find the time.
Its job is to keep the oil cleaner. It filters down to a fine particle size of 2 microns. It will help to extend oil change intervals also, oil analyisis should be done to see how far out you can stretch it.
Thats what Im here for

what is the filters capacity?
Atleast a qt. So yeah thats a good point too, it increases your oil capacity also.

I'm guessing closer to 2 quarts. I have FS2500's on 3 vehicles and the Amsoil bypass on 3 vehicles. The Amsoil is easier to change.
With the older Amsoil filters the FS2500's worked noticably better. Amsoil has stated that their newer line of ilters - not so new now - matches or betters the performance of the FS2500's
When I start my vehicles after an oil change the oil goes back to black and then after 500 miles or so the oil is noticably lighter for a period of time.
I've been running 20,000 mile oil changes with very periodic sampling.
I install a T in the Engine oil cooler supply line to feed the bypass filter and return to the oil fill neck - I tig weld a nipple into the neck to attach the return line to.
On the first bypasses I installed I used the plug in the block in front of the oil filter for the supply.
I've mounted filters on the left side fender or to the right of the left side battery

I've been running Amsoil 5w30 in all the 6.5's for seems like forever. I run Amsoil in everything I own except the Toro which burns a quart of oil an hour.
This is what I did on the 1989 C2500. I got 300,000 miles on the 6.2 and 500,000 miles on the 6.5 long block I replaced it with. I've always figured "Don't mess with success" So I keep doing everything to all my other vehicles I did to the 89. Except I was, for the most part, the sole driver of the 89.
The 98 is currently at least 5000 miles overdue for an oil change. I'm not able to change the oil yet & it seems nobody else is able to take it someplace and get it done.
Maintenance like that and they wonder why we drive old cheap vehicles. Not to mention the 20 rdio knobs they've lost and never try to replace.

That's the stuff. That is what the tech support guys at Amsoil recomended for the 6.5 way back when and even last years when I called to check again.
I need to update the sig. There's been a 94 xtracab shortbed K1500 added to the stable by my son. Nice truck for $2000. about 135,000 miles off Ebay 3 monthes or so ago. It's now running on Amsoil too.

Hi Leroy, Im about to order an oil cooler kit and o rings for my truck. Do you offer a discount to site members here? If so I will be ordering today. And eventually the amsoil by pass fiter.
Awesome, its good stuff.
Hi, I just replied to your question in my profile page to. No I don't offer further discounts I keep my prices as low as I can all the time. For example the next closet thing to my bypass oil filter in this thread that I have found is over $200.

Ok does this kit leave the original filter set up in place? Basically adding a second filter to the engine?
Exactly. You full flow stays in place and you add this to oil pressure sending unit port with a tee or another port on engine? and run a return to the filler neck or valve cover or some other convienent place.
