I have a 2332 with a dry sump its a bug pack pump i was wondering what oil filters any one else is running I've mostly stuck with either WIX or motocraft but I don't like the way they look when i take them off it seems like I'm crushing the bypass spring I tried a no bypass filter but the seal blew out i run valvoline sae 30 vr1 oil since I noticed that I have started changing filter every ride so it hasn't been an issue really anymore but its still on my mind could my pressure be to high and how could i change that any suggestions would be appreciated

The NAPA Gold line filters are heavy duty, ran them on the sprint cars for years.

You should consider installing a mechanical pressure gauge. Cheap insurance for peace of mind. How many thousand dollars do you have tied up in your 2332? Now much is a simple pressure ga. set up? A hundred bucks for a good one?

I run a NAPA gold filter on my buggy. I used to run WIX or Baldwin.
