Would not using a full flow filter in a by pass system reduce the oil pressure too much?
Since the standard bypass type oil filter is at the end of the oil passage and is restricted to virtually a trickle, I do not see how the flow through the filter could possibly affect the oil pressure negatively. If anything, a lesser flowing filter would INCREASE the oil pressure. As an example, if the line to the filter is completely blocked, the oil pressure seen at the pressure sender will go up slightly.
