Default moving oil filter housing on om617

I need to move my oil filter because I can not get the oil filter out. It is hitting the brake booster, I have the front end off now to paint the truck and would like to move it now.
I could make the adapter but into painting now and would make it faster to buy a adapter than to make it. and clue where to get one. Vette.

In one of the jeep conversion post there are some good photos of a conversion plate that the author built, sorry I don't know of any ready made ones.

Mocal, a UK company is in the adapter plate business. You should find a proper fitting unit there.

I went ahead and just made my own, now I just need to find the gasket for it.
Where is the best place to fine them, my auto parts place has no clue.

Check autohausaz.com they seem to have the best prices and fast shipping, you can also get parts over at peachparts forum through their fast lane parts
