I think I figured it out.
I believe the centrifuge uses the Oil Pressure to turn itself a long with Oil Pressure you need to have goodvolume/flow of Oil.

The 1/16" hole it the center tube is just fine for a Bypass Oil Filter that uses an Filter Element but not enough volume/flow of Oil will go through that 1/16" hole to operate the Centrifuge.
