so, it don't fit like it should?

removing the filter to the place where the battery is isn't an option for me... need the space for IC Piping ...

but i have another idea to mount it...

but pls guys, give me pics / your ideas

Could this solve the leaky oil pedestal problem? I have replaced the seals on mine a few times but they always seem to fail. How are you guys going about hooking the oi llines up and blocking off the original location for the oil filter?

from what i understand and seen, its a replacement peice that fits into the stock location with plugs for the lines sticking out, and then you relocate with those lines. i think u'll still have ur problem.
