remote oil filter

hi, does anyone make a oil filter pedestal for a remote filter with 2 1/8th npt ports for oil pressure and temp. i dont want a greddy one. i just need a base for the relocation and a base for the filter. i'll probably just use a single filter and not the dual filter and make my own lines. thanks for the help.

I think typically when running a remote filter it's plumbed into the oil cooler circuit to simplify the plumbing. You can get a fitting to bypass the stock filter location, it's available from Mazdatrix and so on. I don't know about the remote filter mount with ports, but those are all universal, check Summit Racing for instance, they'll have a selection.

All of the vendors (Mazdatrix, Speed Machine, etc.) make replacement pedestals that have gauge ports in them.

From virtually all of the automotive plumbing suppliers (TransDapt, Russel, Earls, etc.) you can get an adapter that allows you to run a remote mount filter. Threads on the FC are the same as the Honda, M18 as I recall.
