[DeTomaso] Hot Rod To The Rescue - A 351 Cleveland Is Eating Distributor Gears - Hot Rod Network

My-bad Thomas - of course you're right.
I was confusing the term "bypass" with "pressure-relief".  There's a
pressure relief valve in the oil pump and the bypass is in the filter.

Wouldn't all 351c filters have a bypass and  most also an anti drain back
valve?

The anti drain back and overflow valves are completely unrelated. 

If the filter gets clogged, the pressure relief valve in the pump will not
help lubricating the engine. The bypass valve in the filter needs to open to
allow unfiltered oil to the engine or it will be toast in seconds.

Personally I run filters without a bypass valve, but they are not common and
I replace it frequently. It is for some Nissan diesel truck that has the
bypass in the block.
