That's my opinion exactly- - - - -a spin-on Diesel fuel filter plumbed in bypass mode will filter the oil better than any full flow could ever achieve, and there's no reason to use flex hoses as long as the filter adapter is mounted to the intake manifold. Copper, or copper/nickel hard lines work better, especially if a spiral vibration loop is incorporated into the design.
