A lubricant conditioning system with a lubricant filtering subsystem mounted to a thermal conditioning subsystem. The lubricant filtering subsystem is in lubricant communication with a lubricant distribution subsystem. The thermal conditioning subsystem is in fluid communication with an internal combustion engine's cooling system. Upon activating or starting the engine 11 and activating the lubricant conditioning system via a switch, a thermally controlled conduit begins heating the lubricant in the engine's lubricant sump. The lubricant is pumped through the lubricant distribution subsystem and is circulated throughout the engine's lubrication system. As the engine is operated, the engine's lubricant is pumped into the lubricant filtering subsystem. The lubricant filtering subsystem filters the lubricant. When the engine reaches normal operating temperature, the coolant is sufficiently heated and an inline thermostat is activated enabling coolant to circulate internally about the thermal conditioning subsystem thereby cooling the lubricant.
