It is pretty much straight forward. I cut the top of the Filter off. Pulled out all of the Cotton and degreased the areas I would need to seal. Put sealant in the bottom. Inserted the String Wound Filter Element and put sealant on the top of the Element and the Top of the Filter.
I clamped the whole thing together and let it all set up.

Remember I did not mess with the Full Flow section of the Oil Filter.

Rather than adding on a seperater bypass Oil filter like I had previously the idea was to use the bypass set-up already present in the but put have a better Element in the Bypass Section.
I is experimental and mine would only fit 617. And, for not not something that is commercially viable.
