Paul,
Not trying to insult your intelligence, but if you use that block-off plate, be sure that you supply oil to the mains some other way.  I made my own adapter plate and welded a -8 bung to it in order to supply the oil to the mains.  Some engines have a tapped hole at the bottom of the rear side-housing, but the 20B is doesn't have that port, so this is the only way.

Hi, Bob.  Thank you for posting the Racing Beat website and part number.  If I decide to go with the Peterson inline oil filter, that oil bypass block would be perfect.  Thanks again.  Paul Conner

Tracy's right Paul and it will use the stock O-rings which is
the only real problem building your own bypass block,

Thanks, Ed and Yvon for the quick response.  Some sneaky suspicion in the
back of my mind suggested that I would have to connect the two O ring holes
so that the oil could go where it was supposed to.  If I use the remote
inline oil filter, I will make a block as Ed suggested.  That is easy
enough.  Thanks again for taking the time to educate me on the oil flow
requirements.  Paul Conner  13b powered SQ2000 canard in Mobile, AL
