CP, if you havnt had problems yet I wouldnt stress too hard. How many hours have you run it since rebuild? People will call me crazy Im sure, but I have run Gen VI block right out of truck with just installing pipe plugs in factory oil cooler line ports and aftermarket remote filter adapter. The engine always had good oil pressure. Maybe I just got lucky. Even a blind squirrel gets a NUT every once in a while. Just be aware that you havnt done everything you could have to "bulletproof" the motor and act accordingly.......watch your guages and dont rev it to death

BYE, perhaps yours had the higher pressure bypass installed from the factory since it was running the external oil cooler.

CP is running a high performance engine with a supercharger. He definitely needs to have his bottom end oiling squared away, or he could end up with an expensive collection of parts in the bilge.

Eddie, I can't begin to thank you enough for going out of your way for me! I have heard nothing but great things said about you here on OSO, and here is another example why. Thanks again.

Eddie Young performance marine
Will you expand on the installation of the plug.
Im doing gen 6 zz502 right now. I just removed the bypass that is located off center. I was about to stake in a 30lbs but after reading some threads I think I wouldn't mind plugging it.

My engine is in my boat so I have limited space. I used my phone on reverse camera to remove the two bypasses. That part was eazy.
