I'm putting a 292 with a spin on oil filter in a 1950 F2 pickup and suspect that I may encounter a space issue between the stubby spin on oil filter and the steering box.  Should this happen, I'm looking for a source for a remote oil filter kit and would like to know if these kits are unique for the Y Block or the same as other Ford engines?  Filter threads and mating surface should be the same right?

Thanks in advance.

Here’s a 90° oil filter adapter which works in some cases rather than doing the remote filter deal.

Here are a couple of past threads discussing remote oil filters.

A word of caution here is to always use a minimum of #10 AN line for the oil lines to and from the filter.  I use #12 AN on my own remote oil filters.
