What grade of oil were you using when things went wrong?

I've thought about an Accusump for my 3.8 since I stuffed the thing in the car, but what comes up in my mind, is rather than running a super stubby oil filter ON the sandwich plate (that needs to be changed extremely frequently), why not just run an in-line filter (available from several sources, including the folks who make the Accusump- Canton Racing), which could be plumbed in and mounted in the rear trunk, next to the Accusump. It's only one more oil line, and a few more fittings.

Surfer you are thinking man! Changing the filter all the time is why I would want to avoid the accusump...maybe you have something here! What filter and hardware were you thinking about?
