I just run a Setrab 920 with a remote oil filter, works fine for me

The oiling system I use and install on cars that come through my shop is similar. I use a rear adapter, a three port filter adapter that is bolted to two tabs that are welded to the left side motor mount, this locates the filter in the perfect location. i use a fluidyne cooler and lightweight lines and fittings. This is very similar to the systems you are talking about. It would cost about $725.00 for the whole system, if you have the rear adapter you can deduct about $100.00.
It is very effective.

Hey Dennis what's the deal with the two pressure relief settings when this type of system is used?  I've read somewhere that your asking for trouble if you don't match up the pressure settings or only use only the main relief valve (disable the cooler circuit valve)?  Thanks Bob

Just an update to all. I finally got my Hank Scott system on the car and running. I've ran it 3 full nights with zero issues so far. Both lines are tied together and the lower pressure side (cooler out) is stock setting. The oil temps are way better than before even using the Long Mfg. oil cooler.(waiting to get the Fluidyne 2pass).

i also have got my hank scott oil system but i do not have it on the car yet. it looks really cool cant wait to see it on the car. i will be running a 910 and a 920 dual fan pack. snapper do you have any tips from when you put yours in that could help me. thanks cody

Cody, Just make sure you follow Hanks instruction sheet. Bleeding all the lines in the right order and checking all your line connections (for in and out)  and tightness. I had 2 fitting that needed to be tightened after some hard racing (these were both aluminum hose ends connected to aluminum fittings). If you have gauges I'm sure you'll see a huge improvement    

[racerdad]

thanks for the advice snapper i will follow hanks instructions. i will have a gauge but we just got the car and i do not know what it ran before. but it has to be better than it was before it had the spin on filter and a old fluidyne cooler no fan.what temps should i  be looking for? whats a good temp? thanks cody

Keep it under 300

[racerdad]

so is just under 300 good or is 300 way to hot and how much psi at ideal should i have? thanks cody

[VMS Motorsports]

My cars have around 40psi cold.
End of feature 280-290 or so tops
