I wonder if the oilguard by-pass filter will screw on the amsoil dual remote block? I like the dual remote block but I think the oilguard filter would be better after probing through the data. Amsoil is pretty vauge when it comes to details.

from reading all the websites from their manufacturers i feel the FS-2500 is the best does anybody have one or have insite on where it mounts on an 03 cummins. Also if anyone has one does it really filter the oil like it says?

I changed my oil and sent off for an analysis to blackstone labs at 6000 miles. The oil was black as coal. The sample came back in great shape. They said I could extend my interval farther. I am going to go about 8000 miles this time. I know the book say 7500 miles but I am going to slowly try to extend. It might cost alittle more in short term, but I'll have piece of mind.

does it make any difference what type of motor mods that you have on the truck with how far you can go on an oil change? I know I had kinda sootie oil they last time i changed it at 10k..I may need to invest in the bypass..I know I need to but i need some $$.

The guys here at the shop change theirs about every 7000 miles. Barry's 03 dodge, Matt's 12V. These 2 are high HP modded to the nutz trucks. If you are lightly modded you may be able to go longer but I would get oil analysis done just to double check.

You could, just be sure to get an oil analysis done to be safe.
Barry's 03 is at about 700 rwhp I think and the 12V was last dyno'd at over 900 rwhp. There is a great you tube vid of the 12v blowing up on Maddog's dyno this past summer. Matt hit 125 psi and sprayed 2 shots of nitrous....kaboom!! haha Funny vid a good learning tool

I just got my latest report back. With 15,118 miles on the oil the tbn was still good at 5.2. I would post the report on here but I don't want all my personal stuff out there ya know.
I talked to a girl Filtration Solutions and she said most truck running a semi-synthetic like me could go around 40k. so we will have to wait and see. I have been sampling every 5000 miles and changing the filter every 10k.

Fs-2500 is "third party tested" as well
