Mellon indicates above 4K rpm flow rate through their pump does not increase (linear) but very little. I agree the gpm per minute is mind boggling. I am using 10W40.
I dont know what i was thinking. I am going to use the existing braided line from the remote filter housting to
oil cooler and just turn it around back to the engine. It has to be long enough and it has a 90 on just as the existing one does.
I will check when I get home. If I am sucessfull that will tell me if it is the cooler or not.
by the way a shorter filter to the motorcraf fl1a is motorcarft fl300 which is about an inch shorter.
as far as aeration i can make it do it 5 seconds after starting the engine in the driveway, not enough time for aeraition plus please rember i am getting 65 psig before the cooler rock steady. this is an identicle set up to every spf car.
