2 questions- where do you normally connect the line from your filter back to the oil pan, my oil pan does not have a empty plug. Second, why don't you make a small version, with a filter the size of a lawnmower for use on normal gas cars. It seems the oil is passing thru the bypass filter more then it needs to.
