I know that Toby, but he was having trouble understanding how the stock one worked to begin with, ie excess oil was bled directly back into the pan instead of through the oil cooler.
But I think before too much longer I'll be going with an NA filter housing myself, using a sandwitch plate and oil t-stat.
