If you have a stock oil filter canister there is a restrictor hole in the stand pipe. Nothing more is needed. JMO

What are you referring to as a "stand pipe"? The restrictors are either at the fitting at the rear of the block or at the inlet to the filter canister. The canister itself does not have a restrictor in it.

I made mine. I took a standard "T" fitting, applied flux to a brass bolt and screwed it in, sweated and soldered it, cut off the bolt head, then drilled a .055" hole through it. The hardest part was drilling the hole-use a drill press, go slow, use lots of oil.

Took me about 15 minutes and works perfectly.
