235 bypass oil filter question

[Isaiah92260]

So I’m hoping I don’t have to go back into the garage and put the plug and oil pressure sensor back on but i just installed the oil lines for my bypass oil filter on my 235. I believe my motor is a 57’ block but doesn’t have any numbers on the deck by the distributor which I believe makes it a replacement motor in the 61 Apache.
Anyways I’m reading a lot of few discussions on this forum and a few others, and now I’m hoping that putting on this filter was not a bad idea.

I hear some people say you don’t need them, just change your oil more often.
Don’t use synthetic.

And some people I’ve read say only use synthetic if I use the filter,
Then some are saying that’s it’s not a true full flow system and I have to make a modification to the head?

I’m so confused...

Like a dummy the lines were leaking oil all over, I over looked that I needed to seal the fittings. I sealed them. I’m hoping I don’t have to worry any any leaks.
I also used toilet paper for the filter
