Re: Pics Of Oil Cooler Rigging
Make sure you have the direction of the oil flowing exactly as described in the diagram. A fram hp-6 filter has a bypass built into the filter. When the oil is moving faster than the matrix can filter it, it flows through the bypass, which is most of the time. If the filter is plumbed backward the oil will be restricted to the engine and the resulting concequences will be catastrophic. ..... * BOOM *......

Re: Pics Of Oil Cooler Rigging
Now we can start the battle of filter first or cooler first.
My reasoning is filter first. Hotter oil goes thru filter easier, and filter oil goes thru cooler in case motor melts down the cooler will only have clean oil going thru it.
If motor is gen VI then also make sure you have the 30 psi bypass in the block instead of the 10-11 psi one

Re: Pics Of Oil Cooler Rigging
We usually plumb filter first as well for the reasone you guys already mentioned.. It's really not much more difficult to do so either.. However if you screw something up bad enough while running, you still will have stuff get into the cooler.. Jamie / Lakeside
