remote oil filter for expermental

I tried to make a block off plate for my O-290 engine to connect a remote
oil filter- it worked except the oil pressure went from 90psi to 120psi-

I am using champion ac filter ch-48108 & 1/2 lines-

Everything is plummed right- (engine oil out to filter-in, etc)

Whats different about the lycoming engine?

Watch out for those die cast remote filter brackrets--I had one with fittings
screwed in it and it sat on the floor and age-cracked!!---so I machined
one out of 1" plate.

On my 0-290 I just plumbed the filter in-line with the oil cooler and
left the screens in place. I'm using a die cast filter bracket that I
bought at a VW speed shop with an automotive filter.
