Hot Shot’s Secret introduced the new Quick Install Frantz Bypass Filter System for the Ford 6.0L and 6.4L Ford Powerstroke. The Frantz Bypass Filter System installs in five minutes and removes up to 96 percent of all wear particles from engine oil, according to the company. The system is designed to improve engine protection and engine life and extend oil drain intervals. The purpose of the Frantz Filter System is to deliver an endless supply of clean oil to the engine. By filtering a controlled percentage of oil at a time, the Frantz Filter System can filter oil as fine as 2 microns to keep oil consistently in a like-new state.
The custom system includes a Frantz filter, an oil filter cap, an oil-fill cap, a gasket, and two quick-release pre-made stainless-steel braided hose lines. With this system, there is no major assembly required – just tighten fittings to install. The only tools needed for installation are a 9/16 wrench and a crescent wrench. The base mounts to the truck with powerful magnets for a no-drill installation.
This bypass filter design was developed by John Frantz in 1953. The innovation continues as Hot Shot’s Secret pursues new designs, tests new filter media, and creates new system configurations; with this quick install version the latest to be introduced. The Frantz Filter System partnered with Hot Shot’s Secret’s Blue Diamond 100 percent PAO engine oil allows oil to last up to 100,000 miles, the company says.
“As with all the products we manufacture here at Hot Shot’s Secret, this product was developed because we recognized a need in the automotive industry that needed to be filled. No one else offers a pre-made bypass filter kit. The ability to provide all components necessary for a quick and easy installation was our goal. We knew the oil filtration process of our Frantz Filter System was world-class … so we wanted installation to be equally as easy and effective. While we started with the 6.0 and 6.4 liter Powerstroke, we have plans to extend the quick installation feature to our other model-specific Frantz Filter kits soon,” said Eric Trimble, LSI brand marketing specialist.
