Default Oil filter relocation.

Any recommendations on which manufacture to go with? I hate going under the car to remove the oil filter near the firewall, then having oil drip all over my hand and face. sucks. Any advantages or disadvantages?

B&M SUCKS!!!!!!!

The adapter doesn't fit, it won't tighten down onto the block. I used a Perma-Cool adapter (universal kit) to fit a oil cooler. But the new filter (Ford) is still mounted in same spot. Good luck find a spot to mount the relocation kit, I could not find any. Maybe if car had no A/C you could mount it on the inside LF frame rail.

BTW I've never had to crawl under car to get filter off. I just reach behind intake and twist. If it is too tight, then you put it on too tight!

I agree, I take off my filter from the top, jack up the car slide the pan under and undo my oil plug from the side of the car, i never even get under my car for an oil change... but my moroso pan makes getting to the plug alot easier..
