Internal Filter Mag

Thanks for the replies guys. I've seen a lot of the good work that others have done with modifying magnets to the outside of their existing filters. From what I've seen though, the particles are sooooo fine that I've sure some are passing through the filter media and acting like sandpaper over time. An internal magnet would at least be in direct contact with the oil and be able to catch some of this stuff. My concern, like others, is what could happen if the magnet let's loose and gets carried away with the oil to the nether reaches of the engine. Other than the billet filter PW mentioned, I'm just not sure it's worth it or how to make it fool proof enough that I wouldn't worry every time I hit a bump or pot hole.
