The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Full-Flow Oil-Filter Kit from "Motor City Flatheads"

I have had a MCF FF oil filter system on a '35 21 stud engine for the last 10 years/~12k miles. Has worked flawlessly for me although like 2935ford I also initially twisted the inner hose from OP to oil pan bulkhead when I tightened the bulkhead fitting. This twist caused zero oil pressure and had to go back in and straighten that out. That was my own doing because I did not follow installation directions carefully enough.
I have the spin on filter bracket mounted down low on a bracket that bolts to the pan rail/oil pan bolts. I used the hose, fittings, spin on oil filter bracket, etc., that was supplied with the kit as purchased from MCF.
OBTW, Richard Crow, Motor City Flathead (Mark Kirby) has been out of business for many years. Mark is now with the 'Shadow Rods' group. I am hoping to see him tomorrow or Friday at the NSRA Show in York, PA.
