I really liked the amsoil filter I ran on my cm870 and have been tossing around the idea of installing one on the mandated MX13 i have now. They come with a factory disposable centrifugal secondary filter but the oil pressure of the paccar is almost identical to what I had in the isx running around 40psi highway and I was under the assumption that’s not enough for the centrifugal filters to filter adequately. Any thoughts?

I was under the impression you needed air pressure for a centrifuge to work. Maybe that's with just one particular type, though.

I think there are 2 types. One that is oil driven (requires 60+ psi pressure to work well), and one that is air assist I think.
