The way it looks now, I am using the Trans-Dapt 1028 with three choices of mounting. Griggs, which moves the filter further forward, so an Alternator is necessary since the Generator invades the real estate, or, the original one which goes right over the triangular bosses, or, the NEW clamp on style which mounts to the top frame rail right across from the triangular mounting boss. The third option is because not all 235's (not to mention most 216's) do not have the triangular mounting bosses.

Then, for the Bypass system I modify the 1028 with a 1/16th inch restrictor in the oil filter outlet. You can use your original rubber hoses, but to get around the exhaust, I offer a stainless NPT pipe solution with a Tee to eliminate any heat issues around the exhaust.

Where Griggs idea really shines is for when people have Fenton dual exhaust manifolds. You need to move the filter 5 inches forward to be far enough away from the front pipe. A local friend of mine has exactly that and was able to take pictures of his setup which is pretty darn cool. Lots of pipe fittings, but very efficient and clean. They will be in the article too.

I think we have thought of everything, but always welcome input from those who are interested in making things better. I am editing the web site to explain all this in detail, but it may take a week or two. Before I do that, it's getting this alarm system finished. Why? Because if you offer these things, it is only prudent to offer a guaranteed solution for if something goes south. There is always a purpose. smile
