A bypass filter would never take the place of a the full-flow filter already in place on your vehicle. It would add some extra measure of filtration, but you'd still have to change your regular filter since a bypass wouldn't be an acceptable substitute. I don't think any OEMs have used a bypass type filter since the '50s -- my '58 Chevy 6 cylinder had an accessory bypass oil filter -- the V8s came with a full flow, as did the 6's after '63. I don't think it would help you much.
