My original canister looks exactly the same, with tubing looking the same, running behind the oil filler neck. West, your canister has the button the bottom which leads me to believe it has the inlet at bottom, and runs from inside filter to outside also. So, if ours is factory correct, do we keep them as is. Again, perhaps machining out all fitting flows,and enlarging the hole, or holes in the inside canister pipe? If we do the second bypass line, will any oil go through the filter?
We are getting off the spring matter, but this could be very important to earlier 356's. When someone gets a fresh engine, might they learn from our mistakes, or factory mistakes.
Thanks again to all
