V8 REMOTE OIL FILTERS
Nugget 4x4:
I am going to fit a V8 into a series 2a and have been told I need to fit a remote oil filter , who makes these or where can you buy these from :?
muddyweb:
Merlin Motorsport / Demon Tweeks / most other motorsport suppliers.
They even do a proper pump base for V8s with 2 x 1/2" BSP ports on it, so you can make it all nice and tidy.
banditman:
Mine has a Milner filter flipper doodah on it.............
Steve Parker Landrovers still do em and all you do is take the bottom off the oil pump, bolt on the adaptor in it's place, fasten the oil pump end back onto that and hey presto.....oil filter is upside down to miss the front diff.........
No idea how much they are mind, as mine came in a full Milner kit (or Precision & Conversion, as they are now known!)

The other option is to get a pump base from a 101, as these have the filter pointing at a different angle. Trouble is, they aren't very common.
ukmudmaster:
Jake Wright do them, stops the filter getting bashed about by the diff. I f you go for the "upside down" type, make sure you you use a filter with a built in non return valve, as te engine is starved of oil on start up.
