What is normal for material in oil filter
Just got a oil filter cutter and cut open my first filter on my drag motor and wondering what is normal or acceptable material? There is no big material but metallic flakes floating in the left over oil draining out of the filter. The magnetic drain plug really had nothing on it. This is a used motor (Guessing between 60-80 passes) with 5 easy passes and a couple of heat cycles on a fresh oil change and new filter. The pictures were taken very close up.
thanks

You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
