[RESOLVED] oil filter sandwich

[WILOWNU]

been using a front facing oil filter housing on my 6 bolt, it doesnt have the provisions for an external oil cooler and I was thinking of putting in one of those sandwich plates to give me some ports to work with, anyone use these?

No way.. Do it right. If you want an external oil cooler get an external oil cooler housing like the ones on the 90 cars.

Or relocate your exsisting and run the cooler inline

The 90 housing is definitely the way to go with a 6-bolt. The sandwich adapters make me a bit uneasy as is one more potential point of catastrophic failure (o-ring blows out/plate backs out)

It also makes changing the oil filter a bi*** if you upgraded the downpipe.
