I think if you bought the adapter for a F*rd filter, these filters include the by-pass valve. Check that.

(Note: I first used 2 pressure gauges to check the pressure before and after the filter upon start-up.)

Spin on oil filter on my 261.

I have the same Moroso remote set up as you. Yep, use Motorcraft FL-1A filter with the correct spin on adapter on my late model 261.
