Just imported a 56 3100 with a 235, it seems to run well but it has had the oil filter disconnected and the line routed around the block to the lifters, I understand this is quite common.
I have been running Ford Flatheads in my Model A for over 10 years with no oil filter and 1500 mile changes with no issues.
I have also read the chevy 235 filter only filters about 10% of the oil.
Is it necessary to run the filter on a 235 unless it has been converted to full flow?
Anyone on here running an unfiltered 235?
