You will certainly need a restrictor orifice fitting on the inlet side of the setup - with about a .060 hole in it. If you don't do this, then you have what is essentially one huge oil pressure leak (back to the pan) . . . as the full-flow filter setup was not designed to return oil to the sump (regardless of where you plumbed it).
