I want some clarification on this issue only so that someone doesn't get the wrong idea and burn up a perfectly good engine. Didn't the later model (57 up?) 235/261 go to a full filter oil system which was not a bypass system? I know with a bypass engine you can just remove the filter, plug the lines and be fine. However, I remember reading that if you tried this with a full filter system you would cut off the flow of oil and say goodbye to your engine. (However you could route the oil line back to the block.) Or is this only the later model 261 that I am thinking of? I just want put out a caution for some folks that may not know there is a difference.
