Oil filter hook-up.

Posted by turtleherder on Saturday, February 25, 2006 at 3:45PM :

I am having a rather difficult time finding the correct oil line connectors for this filter. The filter connections themselves are not the problem. The block connections are :(. You may recall this flattie 6 is from a '52 Chrysler. The problem is dealing with the close proximity and 90 degree tengential opposition of the "low pressure in to the pan" port to the "high pressure out of the block" port. As well, the raised boss for the dip stick is keeping me from using a standard 90 deg fitting :(. I can't use two "90's". I want to use a ninety for the low pressure side and a straight for the high side so both point out to the side of the block. I want to use 1/4" copper with either flare or compression fittings. Ideas? :)
