Oil Filter canister - 1950 shoebox
We have an oil filter canister that was on when the car was purchased, but it is not plumbed - so it is just on there for show at the moment. I know there needs to be an .060 restrictor on the inlet side, but are there certain hose dimensions we should be looking for, and connectors for the block?

Re: Oil Filter canister - 1950 shoebox
On my 8BA I used 1/4 in. fuel line to make new oil filter lines. You can see the .060 restrictor at the top. That restrictor came of of a 1950 Mercury but, there are aftermarkets as well. You can see the connectors I soldered on the line to join it together. Works fine.
