I have no experience with K&N oil filters, I run Wix racing filters on mine. As soon as I can swing it I will be changing to a pure power that I can pull apart and look inside. Here is some info that might help you.

Had 632 Dry Sump (1200hp) Cold it would peg the gauge at 100psi then once hot it came down to 65psi...Used a K/N in the beginning before going with a Peterson inline stainless mesh.
Moroso on the 565ci wet sump...or Pure One.
