oil filter relocation kit
Hi R&T,
I understand that you are able to supply a quality relocation kit consisting of the block adaptor, stainless hoses & fittings and filter block for about $400 (as opposed to the crappy ones that leak). Is this still an accurate price for a gen 2, 3SGTE SW20 ?
If so, I have a few questions :
Is the block adaptor a spin on type as I don't think the conventional sandwich adaptors will fit given the close priximity of the dump pipe, dip stick and AC pipes ?
Does the filter block accept fittings for oil pressure and temp sender units (specifically 1/8 NPT) ?
Where would the filter be located ? I understand any relocated filter should not be placed higher that the factory location as this could compromise oil pressure upon start-up. In my case, I think the only viable location would be underneath the dump pipe somewhere as there is a big PWR intercooler occupying the right hand side area.
What would you charge to install the kit ?
Could a noob like me install the kit with basic knowledge and tools, or are these kits best left to a professional like yourself ?
Are you open on Saturday ? Thanks for your response
