remote oil filter 200

I agree in theory with the previous 3 posts. In practice I think there are a lot of car enthusiasts with remote filters and coolers and no problems. Consider the reliability of the power steering hose, rubber brake caliber hoses, and the numerous hydraulic fittings in a cars, commercial trucks, and aircraft. If you fell competent changing these hoses and fittings then I think you can do a job you'll be happy with. You can always change it back if you're not. The one advice I have is with the type of hose connections. While many use simple hose clamps, I would take the adapters to a hydraulic supplier and have them make up the hoses with the crimped on flare fittings. This runs about $20 per hose and they will probably last the life of even a Volvo.
