I  installed the Wolf remote oil filter on the left side of the firewall 
on my IV-P.  It was primarily to avoid the mess when removing the stock 
filter.  I would have second thoughts if I had to make the choice again.

First, there isnt much space available so that the bend on the oil lines 
gets pretty tight.  Second, once the lines are installed, tightening 
them becomes a work of art.  Third, the extra lines in such a tight 
space make it difficult to avoid chaffing.  Fourth, the remote filter 
adds at least four additional points for a possible oil leak.  Fifth,  I 
still have a mess changing the remote filter.

Finally, the remote filter plus the additional oil lines aint cheap and 
I still wonder what real advantage I gained with all that effort and 
expense.    Just one persons experience.
