I noticed on Keith Calver's site a few days ago that he was selling a billet oil filter head due to problems with dirty oil return to the motor. Has anyone got any first hand experience of this? I can't link the page as the site isn't working at the moment.

Probably to eliminate the bypass valve in the standard filter head.
No, I've never had the problem, but i've seen blocked (neglected) Mini filters years ago.
:idea: Just silver solder the ball in. 8)
