No body ever seems to mention "System 1" serviceable filters with a stainless element. Are those bad for boats? I ran one on my jet boat and it worked well.

Food for thought..

Federal Mogul is a top very large producer of bearings...Porsche' ..BMW...Benz..aircraft....and the list goes on and on.

A study completed by Federal Mogul Corp. analyzing over 7000 main and connecting rod bearings concluded that 60% of all engine wear occurs in the 5-20 micron range.

These microscopic particles closely match the precision clearances between critical engine components such as bearings and rings.

So you need both flow and filtration...how are you going to get both?

The question is ...can it be done with a conventional spin on filter in "Racing Applications"?

This is a nice set-up..

I've got one of those systems on my truck. Also, my father has one on his truck and his 2004 Sunsation 288 MCOB with a 496 in it. They are awesome and work very well!

How often do you guys change your oil?

tomas_wallin 07-04-2008 03:14 AM

Every 10-15 hours in my 509 SC 825HP. I was recommended Moroso's Racing filters so I'm using the biggest one i could find (don't remember the part#)

Once a season. I also do oil analysis.
