Hello,

I have used my full flow set-up for ten years. I have gone with and without external coolers depending on what type of motor I was running at the time.
I have never used a themostat because the proper high pressure lines and filter will not burst. Use can use a Redline or fram HP-1 filter with no worries.
The system I use exits the the engine at the pump cover and then continues to the oil filter. From there it re-enters the case through the side of the timing cover.
I currently use no external cooling and have had no problems this summer in Ca. .
I prefer this set-up over returning through the small ports at the top of the case. The flow rate is reduced to a point that is not acceptable at high revs.
I hope this helps.... JMB
