Now you need to make a custom CAT Sticker. Everyone will need one when they get all their CAT filters on lol.

[@levikeffer5429]

I have the amsoil dual bypass system and it filters the oil so clean after 5,000 miles it still looks gold/brown and it adds even more capacity than the cat filter and it’s specifically made for the engine.

[@jaythewhizdog3842]

Ordered this setup today for my LB7. I also ordered the CAT filters for my FASS 95 based on your other videos. My buddy is a CAT tech so I got a hookup. I personally do 3k oil changes but I run dino oil. I’m actually switching to CAT 15w40 for oil too. Total CAT Dirtymax rig baby!

Im late to the party on this one but I just order mine thanks for all your videos brother they do help me a lot with my lb7’s

[@Mike44460]

Looking at the spin on filter for the Allison I'm going to say it has been a while since it has been changed. I'm no expert, but for the cost of the spin on and eight ounces of ATF, I change the Allison filter since I'm already under the truck at every motor oil change. Just my $0.02.

[@agger838]

honestly i like his bucket catch setup more than my lincoln catch. lot easier to dump a bucket than clean out the Lincoln catcher

Awesome I just found you on you tube ...can I put the same Cat oil filter on my 2016 LML GMC ...your videos are very informative

[@chrisao1987]

If you add a additive this makes it easy. 10qts of oil then 1 qt of additive. 👌🏻No more buying 10 and using 9 and having to measure it out.

[@nowere4579]

Great vid

[@JasonY02]

On my 2010 LMM the extractor peace broke ( its supper weak) so I used vice grips and a socket to get it off. Ps: if yours has a way to use a socket just use one it makes it way easier. Some trucks it's just the niple and some a socket will fit on.

[@rogerkirkpatrick9057]

Just so you know our new F2 adapter is for the 2001 to 2010 Duramax, it does not require the old adapter to be removed. Just screw it on, torque it, done.

I saw you're back at Matt's, so how did this mod perform? Or should I just call Matt and ask him?

[@Gillblaze]

Interesting that I just happened to be looking at MDDP last night getting ready to order that kit. Its about that time to do another oil change. Then when it’s time for the fuel filter change I’ll order the CAT kit for it too.

[@rogerkirkpatrick9057]

They should screw in by hand, the filter should screw on by hand. You should only have to torque it to 20 ftlbs to keep it in. If it doesn’t fit return it. There have been some really bad copies.

[@00ttvr6]

And fill the filter as much as possible before installing.

[@kevinkalivoda3442]

I do the same as you Rev, but filling the filter through the center hole seems to be a real controversial thing. Most manufacturers advise not to do this since the center hole is the return to engine feed hole, claiming new oil in the bottle is not filtered as well as an oil filter does.

[@harryp1249]

My research of that filter a few months ago kept me from installing one on my L5P. That filter doesn’t have a bypass valve or worse yet, it doesn’t have a back flow valve. So if you like dry starts or your engine starting with all the oil in the oil pan and not the upper engine where the back flow valves keeps it, then use this filter.

[@aitf99]

That is pretty important info to consider ! Just becuase its a filter doesnt necessarily mean that its for your application

[@stephendwinells8260]

I haven’t read that anywhere yet... I get my filters for free and I see that the filtration is better and I can get cat I am all over it... But if what your saying is true I like to see more.

[@harryp1249]

mddperformance.com/collections/filter-conversions/products/cat-oil-filter-adapter-kit The site talks about no bypass valve but doesn’t mention the anti drain back valve. The site does have an image of an opened filter. There are no valves in the cat filter.

[@stephendwinells8260]

Can we get truck master to chime in on this please... I bought the kit and I won’t put it on if there’s issues with it....

[@vincentrocha7383]

Truck master what are you thoughts on this man post I'm considering buying an oil filter kit but after reading this man's post I'm second guessing... Thank you sir very good information to consider before buying..

[@riveraf5053]

What brand was that adapter

[@aaronmcgowen3890]

Does the nipple removal tool with the kit able to work to re install the factory oem nipple once it has been taken off? I would like to re install the factory nipple as i have now taken it off.. putting the oem nipple back on.. can i use that removal tool to tighten on the nipple? What you do recommend thanks in advance

[@chrisjacobs9735]

Hey boss question I have oil pressure on my Duramax LBZ my mechanic is telling me to get a cat oil filter kit that it would improve the oil pressure. What do you think? Is that true or is just a waste of money?

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

This is a great, simple, upgrade! Any chance you can get us a coupon code for a small discount on the kit?? :)

[@TruckMaster]

Not sure I will have to ask

[@stephendwinells8260]

What about cold starts and oil drain back valve... Running this filter are you hurting the engine on cold starts?

[@turbosupra2jzdragracingtob249]

True. And I don’t see these being less expensive at all. 2x3x more expensive. And more filtration means more oil restriction and pressure loss and more heat.

[@freedomone3518]

Oil would somehow have to flow uphill to leave the filter.

[@seantokash8579]

Mine takes 11 without that big filter

[@edwardmak2218]

Has this Cat oil filter system been tested or reviewed?

[@kevinkalivoda3442]

I believe MDDP does not make this part. He buys it from Karen's Transport, adds the stock nipple removal tool to the kit and repackages it. I think there is some reviews on www.karenstransport.com

[@ericwiltz6584]

Sorry for the bother. I have the CAT's on the way. Is there an issue with dry starts using the CAT? Thanks, Eric

[@user-tj9ks1zv7k]

Curious, besides this being fun and I know a bigger filter means more filtration, but now you need to buy a more expensive filter and an extra quart of oil each oil change just to add a couple thousand miles between changes. Wouldn't changing your oil sooner than usual using high end oil do about the same thing and cheaper?

[@dannyrbailey]

Sinister diesel probably left a dislike after seeing blue biscuit

[@TruckMaster]

Lol 😂 it’s gotta be them

[@philferreira9450]

Love watching your channel. Keep up the good work. Did the oil pressure change after the big filter. When I drove gas trucks I tried bigger oil filter for more capacity and blew up my engine before the next oil change. I am curious on how long someone has been running this filter set up if it makes a difference.

[@TruckMaster]

The oil press looked normal after the install so no issues with this yet but I haven’t heard anything bad about this kit

[@bird289]

Ive been running it for about 10k and my dash shows 10% oil life, hope this helps

[@philferreira9450]

Thank you guys for your input. I will be getting this for my next oil change. Josh, I remember you having to need to replace your wheel bearing. Just wondering if you had done it. I did mine and I thought it would bad considering I live in New England with all the salt in the winters. It took me about 2 hours for drivers side. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.

[@southernfarmer8526]

Besides an extra quart of oil, what are some of the pluses of this swap if you still change oil at 5,000 miles?

[@kevinkalivoda3442]

More filtration, more pleats in filter media, no filter bypass valve like stock filter, plastic center tube to help prevent metal contamination, cat filter uses nylon beads to help keep pleats from bunching together where stock uses almost nothing. Search youtube for filter cut open comparison videos

@@TruckMaster Did you change to Amsoil and consider adding the BMK27 bypass filter system? There's a great video by Don Smith on it. I've been researching it for sometime and it looks good.

[@stayunique91]

That’s like a $20 filter. You can get AC Delco filters for $10 at Walmart and have recommended 10k mike intervals. The CAT fuel filter was a good idea back in the day since they were only $20 vs $60 for a quality fuel filter. Too bad about them not having water seperators

[@hwi7114]

This video is about an oil filter, you're talking about fuel filters.

[@stayunique91]

Ian Hill what I was getting at was that the cat fuel filters were cheaper than stock filters which made them appealing. But these oil filters are more expensive than a factory ACDELCO PF2232.

[@hwi7114]

Gotcha. This thing really seems to be a product in search of a problem. The Duramax is incredibly easy on oil and can do 10k intervals(with oil analysis) with a stock style filter. And like you said, this filter is more expensive. It just makes no sense. Then add on top of it that the CAT filter doesn't have a bypass valve and even possibly no back flow valve, it's a downgrade in all reality.

[@sav300]

stayunique91 cheaper than a CAT, but filters less. 2 micron vs 10 micron on an lb7 can come out to a $4K difference. I’ll pay $20 any day.

[@sav300]

Ian Hill as for the bypass....letting in-filtered oil run through the engine is not a good idea. That’s why we filter it. Bypass does exactly the opposite and you don’t know when it’s open or closed. As for a check valve, it’s equal with the pan so I don’t see the issue, it’s a flooded suction.

[@ScottClevelandmi]

Do you fill the oil filter first or start the truck with the filter dry?

[@blfjr2005]

I disconnect the harness so the engine cant fire, and then I turn it over a few times to fill the oil filter.

[@ghostkind101]

Just so you know MDDP is not authorized to sell these anymore. He has taken my design copied it and had poorly made copies made in some cases the threads were not finished and the inside hole not the proper diameter.

[@wyattmitchell2451]

You should never go more than 4500 miles. Ever. I’ve tested oils, synthetic and conventional, Lucas, ams, shell, and others. They all are breaking down around the same time frame. If you can’t afford to put good oil in your truck, doing it often, and can’t afford to take care of the truck. Don’t own a diesel.

Interesting comment. I know of two gentleman that have proved exactly opposite. They send oil in every 4-5k for analysis and change oil at 20-25k. One runs Schaeffer the other is Delo XSP. Both diesels...

[@monsterram6617]

Clearly modern engine oil doesn't break down at 5,000 miles, at least not to the point where it loses lubricity and causes damage. If this was the case, you'd have bearing failure on tens millions of trucks that have 5,000 mile or greater oil service intervals.

[@103realtree2]

You know I was actually wondering something like that. 10,000 - 15,000 is a lot of miles to put on oil. Oil still breaks down overtime, no matter how well it is filtrated.
