Metal Flakes / Particles in Oil

keep in mind, there are dozens of magnet vendors, shop carefully, and select the proper magnet for the application,
if your going to use magnets in any engine ,
shop carefully and verify the type of magnets and the temperature range they will function correctly in,
oil temps can and do, exceed 250 to- F-320 F at times
and the common neodymium magnets loose the ability to pull metallic debris from the oil flow at 200 f -250 f
yes I've told a great many people about the benefits of placing several high quality ceramic or similar high quality high heat tolerant magnets inside an engine,
no mater how well any engine is built youll eventually find micro-metallic trash circulating with the oil flow and inevitably use of the magnets in the lifter gallery,
heads and oil pan will result in you find a amazing amount of micro-metallic trash trapped on those magnets,
keep in mind all that trash would gone through the oil pump gears, well BEFORE it had any chance of getting trapped in the oil filter.
many magnets lose their magnetic pull if heated too 200F
these SPECIAL CERAMIC MAGNETS below won,t
they are available from several vendors
proper magnets trap metallic debris

magnets are ceramic and glass hard, don,t try to drill or grind them, as they can shatter

Something like this, placing magnets and shrapnel screens helps engine durability red ones in drain valley, green ones being overkill/optional?

keep in mind all that metallic trash, cycles through the oil pump BEFORE it reaches the oil filter
