Dale,
    All true and I realize -12 is severe overkill= as far as the volume of oil needed by

possibly slightly lower oil temp using oversize hose and a filte= r capable of 20 g= pm
with minimal pressure loss..........I will be lubing a Turbocharger plus the RD1C an= d

lube jobs (additional volume needed) and additional heat to an alread= y stressed oil
system...........The external pressure regulator an= d bypass just allows me to adjust
pressure with out pulling the sump.............The = downside is the extra weight of -12 
hoses , regulator and an oversize = oil filter which I have not calculated yet but my oil
system would have been basically the same even without larger hose and filter...........  &nb= sp;

Kelly,

   I = know you asked Lynn, but ...

Things to think about: the original oil= system for the 13B was designed to support two 10mm (~3/8") oil paths - on= e to the main bearings and one to the pressure regulator in the rear (flywh= eel end) iron. Any volume of oil that exceeds the capacities of those paths= will result in excessive oil pressure.  Going to an external pressure= regulator will solve that problem, but to what purpose?  For any give= n pressure, going from a 3/8" line to 1/2" adds 77% to the volume being pum= ped; going to a -10 (5/8") nearly triples the oil flow; -12 (3/4") more tha= n quadruples it - you end up pumping a lot of oil - thereby adding heat to = it - then cooling it and returning it directly to the sump.

So, how= much oil flow do you need for your turbo and re-drive?  As much as th= e engine itself?  I rather suspect that having larger than -10 up to the point where the oil supply splits to service the various components= won't buy you any advantage except lower oil temps, and  that is actu= ally doubtful.

Of the many things to think about is the oiling system and pieces.
 
That bypass valve that filter folks talk about is not a valve at all. = Most filter spin on cans have the elements pressed against the top cover
(where the oil enters and leaves) by a spring. Oil flows into the= can (through the small holes around the outside) and exits throu= gh the big center hole. There is a seal between the outer small holes and t= he inner big hole.
 
When the element loads up with dirt or bearing material, the pressure = drop across the element forces the element away from the top plate against = a spring in the bottom of the can. That spring is a real coil spring in goo= d filters, and a flat (leaf) in cheap filters like Fram.
 
Where the can is mounted inverted, the heavy debris piles up around th= e plate end of the element. So when the element bypasses the oil can flow d= irectly from the small holes to the big hole with no filtration at all.
And right there is all of that dying engine debris ready to go right b= ack to the bearings. 
 
Where the can is mounted with the plate up, the heavy stuff is at the = bottom of the can away from the plate. May not sound like much until
you arrive at over the trees at Podunk needing only 2 seconds mor= e power to clear that last tree and make the runway. 
 
The remote mount is a weight penalty unless you needed more nose weigh= t anyway. But provides more latitude on location and clearance.
The inverted element tends to trap foamed oil at low engine speeds, an= d save it as a dose of air and condensate for your next start up.
 
K&N filters have a 450 to 550 pound burst can and are used in most= racing classes. They cost just slightly more than a good street filter and= are available in any hot rod shop or mail order.
 
The Frams that Racing Beat suggests are really good filters, and I would= be shocked to find that Fram actually makes them. Those filters are way too = big for aircraft use and very heavy when full of oil. The usual filter stan= d is built to fit the Fram PH8A or Lee FL-1 Both Ford crosses from the 70s. &= nbsp;The center hole is 3/4 x 16 thread.
The NAPA 1515 also works just fine if you have a store close by.
About 9 GPM= and 300 pound burst.
 
The airplane engine has a more severe duty cycle than a race car. It i= s
load limited to about 6,500 RPM at wide open throttle. So the heat is = constant and high. The racer has long periods of closed throttle and even t= hough the RPM may be much higher at times the cooling load is lighter = than for the aircraft.  
 
We use one ounce per gallon of Red Line synthetic 2 cycle oil in the f= uel. No wear, and never a failure. For 2 cycle non synthetics= I would never go less than one ounce per gallon= . And a bit more won't hurt anything.
Never use synthetic crank case oil in the fuel. It is very stable at h= igh temps and will make black puddles under you exhaust pipe.  
 
I run on as usual.
