i amcurrently rebuilding my engine and i would like to put on a oil filter relocator on it .where is a good place to buy one ,a good place to relocate it to,and if there is anybody that has had problems doing it:icon_surp
oil filter relocation-i need to know....
- Thread starter stock 87 turbo
- Start date
I re located mine to where the stock passenger side tow hook was.
The filter mount will be big enough to use a Motorcraft FL1A filter(or fram or Toyota )
and provide about an extra quart of oil which is muy bueno for turbo's

Canton full flow filter, on the apron, and no problems, you just have to drill one hole, assuming your AFM is slightly off to one side, and your not using the stock turbo IC pipe anymore... LOL So I suppose there are plenty of problems unless you know how to fabricate some pipes for the IC, then the oil is easy.
I used a summit relocation with permacool thermostat and B&M cooler...the filter was relocated to under the pass side headlight by drilling 3 holes into the thin metal that holds the washer fluid bottle in place and putting bolts and nuts to the filter bracket
how long of line do you need to put it there?are the braided lines worth the extra money or will the regular lines work fine?

Nice choice for positioning it, I bet it gets lots of airflow. I might have to copy you :icon_bigg

I ordered a Mr Gasket Oil filter relocation kit at work should be in tomorrow. (O'reilly's btw) Part # 7682 line code: MRG
my cost 52.66. normal persons cost was 60.99 iirc..
Then I need to find a oil thermostat. b&m for 59.89
so far @ 112.55 for the both.

thanks for the input guys,i bought a dual oil filter kit from summit with a thermostat.why not add a little more oil capacity.once i get my wiring harness andpolished valve covers i will be ready to rock and roll and get it together.you know what- it doesnt take too long to spend 4k on a motor and exhaust....... and i still have a stock turbo for now!
