Kevin,

 

   Bob has it right . You are just overlooking the fact that you have

to add a remote filter to the system and only filtered oil is plumbed

to the large AN fitting on your adapter. The small outlet on your

adapter can be used to plumb oil to your redrive and/or oil pressure

sender.  IMHO

Kevin,  The oil filter in the stock application receives unfiltered oil in threw the banjo fitting where it can either go to the relief valve (first hole) down  (normally no flow) or to the outside of the filter, up. The oil then goes threw the filter (filtered oil) to the center of the filter and down to the oil galley (second hole).  The adapter you have replaces only half of that system, and allows you to plumb the oil system.
     You have to add a remote oil filter so that only filtered oil gets to that adapter.  Then, filtered oil goes down to both  the relief valve and the oil galley.
 
Who's confused???  If you were here, I could show you.

OK , I'll try again with drawings.  I can't figure out how oil would be forced thru the filter when all the ports are connected.  why would oil pass thru the filter when it can simply go around?  the guy that sold these, I forget who it was off hand, assured me that it was correct.
