Yeah, later. I really do want the full-flow filtering! What I'll do is
simply plug the stock pump outlet and put my cover on the stock pump;
I'll have stock clearances but the front exit. Later though! I have
things to do and to be honest, I'm sick of working on the thing right
now.

I don't know why I'd worry about this more than a car will full-flow
filtration where a plugged filter means no oil at all! It's
inconcievable to me that I could plug a filter fed by a 1/8" line
anyways.

Besides I did find and install a filter that has both 10PSI bypass and
anti-drainback, Wix 1374. Some BMW app.
