6.5L Detroit and Duramax, similar oil system/filter

[Potluckslammy]

Can anyone tell me if the Duramax shares a similar oil system to the 6.5L? Such as a spin-on oil filter....are the oil fill caps the same? I'm asking because I'm looking at an oil bypass filtration kit made for the Duramax, and wondering if something could be put together for my 6.5. Thanks!

Amsoil's will interchange, even states that in the description..

Excellent! Thanks Chris! I need to go hunt up the Amsoil kit so I can eyeball it.

Yea, it sure does! Amsoil's Single Remote Oil-Filter Bypass kit has full flow adapter, and I oil fill cap return setup, just like I was looking at elsewhere.

@Husker6.5 I viewed Leroy's centrifugal filter kit, and talked to him about it. Been looking at centrifugal filters and oil spinners for quite some time. His kit works just as well as I'd expect...and it look high-speed! So, it's definitely under consideration.

Does the LS1-LS6 share an oil cap in common with the 6.5 and the Duramax? Anyone? Looking at shiny aluminum oil caps on fleaBay.
