GM Ecotec Canister Delete Bypass Kit – Remote Filter & Cooler Integration

The BK Racing Ecotec Oil Filter Canister Bypass Kit was developed for GM Ecotec performance engines requiring remote oil filter mounting, external oil cooler integration, or cleaner engine bay routing in high-performance applications.

This kit replaces the factory Ecotec oil filter canister assembly and redirects oil flow through external lines, allowing the use of larger remote-mounted oil filters and dedicated oil cooling systems. Ideal for turbocharged, supercharged, circle track, drag racing, road racing, off-road, and custom Ecotec builds where improved oil temperature control and serviceability are important.

The factory oil filter housing can become restrictive and difficult to package in high horsepower applications, especially when turbo systems, custom intercooler piping, engine swaps, or racing oil coolers are added. The BK Racing Oil Filter Canister Bypass Kit simplifies the oiling system while providing a cleaner and more flexible solution for serious performance builds.

Precision CNC-machined for accurate sealing and durability, this bypass kit is designed to withstand high oil pressure, elevated temperatures, and harsh racing environments.

Frequently Used In High RPM Ecotec Builds With  83lb Valve Springs, Solid Lash Adjusters, Oil Temperature Warning Kit.
