John,
Not quite sure what you're referring to here.  I fabricated an adapter
to replace the old filter mount, and then used an aftermarket remote
filter adapter.  It uses a PH-8A type filter.  I was able to hang it to
the bottom on the plugs side of the engine off the pan bolts.  That way
I don't spill oil on everything when changing the oil/filter.  The oil
flow is from the front cover outlet into the filter, out of the filter
into the oil cooler, out of the cooler and into the adapter block.  =20

The oil filter adapter block is a good place to put a temperature sensor
as it gets exposed to a good flow of oil.  Be sure that there is a clear
passage between the two holes.  One hole goes to the oil bypass, the
other feeds the bearings.  Oil needs to get to both. =20

Who in the group is working on the inverted oil filter mount.  I forgot
to
make a note of it and it looks like I'll be needing one to eliminate one
more wart on the cowling.  JohnD
