oil filter relocation?

I need to move my oil filter it is in the way .where can I get a relocation kit? does anyone have this done? the reason is I am putting this motor in a samurai and I am setting the motor back into the tunnel far so as to have the weight a centered as possible .(so I dont nose dive off a jump) thanks

I want to do a rotary samurai so bad.....

I have seen kits but can not recall where. I have a product due out in a few weeks that will help you with the relocation. It is recirculation block off that replaces the pedestal. You then run a relocation pedestal in line with the lower oil line to the oil cooler.

Check out the link in my sig in a few weeks and it will be listed.

22 days to fit the motor or 22 days until an event?

Here ya go...

http://www.racingbeat.com/FRmazda1.htm

Look under the select category menu on the left. At the bottom click on oil system and go to the bottom of the list . They have a single OR double filter relocation setup and it is a very nice unit. Not super cheap...but nice. You have to get the oil filter bypass block too, but should work perfect.

Hope that helps...

Greg
