The Sinister Diesel Coolant Filtration Kit is one of the most effective upgrades you can make for your 7.3L Powerstroke. Even a new engine can circulate leftover casting sand, rust, and metal flakes through the coolant system—slowly clogging your oil cooler, heater core, and water pump. Over time, that contamination leads to overheating and expensive failures.
This kit solves the problem by adding a bypass-style filtration system that continuously cleans your coolant as the engine runs. The CNC-machined 6061 billet aluminum filter block mounts directly to existing factory holes for a clean, no-drill installation. It’s anodized in Sinister Blue for corrosion protection and durability.
Each kit includes a genuine WIX 24070 filter, known for its efficiency and reliability, along with pre-assembled multi-layer silicone hoses featuring crimped brass fittings for a professional, leak-free connection.
Installation is simple—most users can complete it in under two hours with basic hand tools. Once installed, you’ll enjoy cleaner coolant, lower maintenance costs, and extended engine life.

- Backed by a 1 Year Warranty
- Factory coolant systems often retain casting sand and metallic debris that circulate through the engine, clogging vital cooling passages
- This system continuously filters small amounts of coolant, removing contaminants before they can cause expensive failures
- Cleaner coolant means better heat transfer, longer component life, and fewer costly breakdowns
- Designed as a bypass-style system, it filters efficiently without restricting coolant flow or risking overheating
- Anodized billet aluminum construction and Sinister Blue finish give your engine bay a professional, high-performance appearance
The bypass system filters a small percentage of coolant at a time until all of it has passed through the filter. Inline systems can block flow if the filter clogs. With the Sinister Diesel bypass design, coolant continues to circulate even if the filter becomes full—no risk of overheating or engine damage.
