i built my own oil bypass filtration system by adding an additional 2 wix oil filters for a tola of 3, i was trying to find a good location to drain the oil into but only came up with a couple. my first option is draining it into one of the valve covers or into the oil fill tube. is there anything wrong with it draining into the valve cover of the #1 valve cover? i would rather do it this way because it will look cooler seeing all that steel braid

 

I think that the oil filler tube would be the best place. I hear a lot of people that put it there. I think trying to put it into the valve cover wouldn't be a great idea. It might be possible to put more oil in there than will flow back to the pan. Just my opinion though.

 

why not just run it straight to the pan

 

well i aint pullin the pan to drill a lowsey 1/2 hole and get shavings and crap in there. i was thinking about makuing a custom filler cap with the barbed fitting into that

 

Amsoil has a oil fill cap made just for this purpose for some engine models. WWW.amsoil.com

 

That's what I used on my 02 for my bypass setup. Though since mine is a 24v it returns the oil to the vavlve cover.

 

well i do the the 12 and 24v filler caps are in 2 different locations and are different thread

 

true but if you were paying attention I was also answering your question about returning the oil to your #1 valve cover.

 

put in the valve cover thats where the 24vs put theres

 

even though ours is a single cylander on 1 valve cover were yours has all six cylanders to spread the volume better?
