Don't think you would ever need a bypass on power steering, the pump would growl and seize before it could use a bypass valve. On a transmission one would surely want one? Would you want to have the possibility of cut back cooler line flow with a partially obstructed filter?

I think it was around 1977 or 1978, my older brother had a 2 door 1967 Mercury with a 390, repainted black from the original green, looked kind of cool with cragar five spoke mags, dual exhaust with Royal Scott glass packs, still with the ugly green interior though, lol. I told my brother that...

He need to have a ham sandwich on the counter too. ;)

A popular small block and big block chevy oiling mod was to plug the oil bypass, orange can death resulted.

Op bought the Frantz, not the Insane, Frantz has been keeping oil clean for over 60 years, circumventing a lot of engineering that cannot. :)

The filter with the split weld, the end cap is ballooned out, by a lot... lol, review says this was installed on power steering, I think it was put on the pressure line and not the return line.

You wouldn't get much cooling with a bypass filter, a frantz or similar setup would add 3/4 of a litre in oil capacity, if heat is the main issue why not add on a oil cooler?

Do the Gazpacho filters have a bypass valve?

Edit; On zooming in on the second picture, the bypass area is not 'sealed off', the end cap is flat with no provision to fit a valve.

Found these reviews on amazon, first pic is a defective weld that split open after 30 minutes of run time, second pic is the bypass valve area that is sealed off, these are IFJF knock offs so buyer beware!

Looks like coolant with that hose and clamp showing. Looked again, might be for the engine.

Paper color change is clutch dust. :)

No, PGI Northstar - which is somehow owned partially or fully by Premium Guard, bought the name and all IP only. They did not acquire any physical equipment or plant space. What are the 'Assets' they say are part of the deal then?

I would assume assets would mean all the tooling, where it goes and what country, who knows. I would tool up and produce the good Ultra and Orange can, just the two lines.

You put the leaf spring on the top instead of the bottom of the filter.

Ok, you can get a pgi filter with fram decal and fram orange paint, who would want that?

Every filter c&p will look the same, only the brand decal will be different, so I hope not!

I have to smack the dash to get the disc to come out, got to be quick as it only ejects out just enough to grab it with your finger tips, if you miss it auto loads back in and you have to start the whole process over, been doing that for a few years now, 2010 Ford Ranger, hope this helps.

Those scuffs are most likely from your initial break in, i recall you said it had retarded ignition timing and glowing red exhaust manifolds, I don't think it is severe, I would just run it, it will not get worse.

I just wanted to see why you mounted it upside down, now I see why, hope it's not too messy at change time.
