    Spinner II Centrifugal Oil Bypass Filter

    No, the recommended the smaller one and then I got the bigger one on accident. But they said that it should be fine. There's a simple formula they use to calculate what size unit to spec, and it has to do with the percentage of oil in the system. Sorry, don't remember the numbers off the top of...

    Spinner II Centrifugal Oil Bypass Filter

    You ought to give the people at Spinner a call regarding sizing. Talked to them a few times and got a lot of helpful info.

    Spinner II Centrifugal Oil Bypass Filter

    Spinner II Centrifugal Oil Bypass Filter

    No, I decided to wait to install the Spinner. I bought an LDS engine that I'm going to swap into Mah Deuce (just got home with it last night!), and I'm also going to install a RACOR CCR and primary fuel filter in the same area. So I think I'll probably be able to make a one one mounting bracket...

    Spinner II Centrifugal Oil Bypass Filter

    I spent some time this afternoon trying to figure out where I want to mount this Spinner II unit, and I ended up designing a mount very similar to JDToumanian's. The bracket is about 15" tall and it's offset to keep the centrifuge away from the turbo. The pictures where I'm holding the...

    Oh, and what size oil lines did you use? EDIT: Just checked and the instructions say to use -8AN.
