What we are looking for is a billet oil filter adapter allowing two (dual) filters.

One alternative is the Canton adapter and high volume filter, which is "O" ringed.

Thanks in advance for you help.

It doesn't, but if someone is building a dual billet oil filter, with "o" rings, you know the quality is going to be better.

The question is why build a very very ($$$$$) engine and put stuff on it that that isn't high quality with absolute performance in mind.

I mean why stop spending money now wacko.gif

do you have a cast one, if so share the info smile.gif

Mueller,

can you look into making something that bolts to a 914 oil filter console and uses a Boxster oil filter? They are cartridges and are more friendly to the enviroment when thrown away (no steel)

Maybe something that bolts onto the stock block area and can use a Boxster plastic thread on holder and the cartridge style filter.

Just thinking out loud here...

Are the filters going to be in series or parallel? Or, one for scavenge, one for pressure?
Matt Romanowski
I thought Moroso used to make one, but I can't find it. Amsoil makes billet ones designed for diesels.

If you want one for suction and one for pressure, you are better off using one of the little suction filters. I think Canton Meca makes them.

And you can get the filter elements anywhere from 100 to 45 microns. drooley.gif

100 to 45 microns - you can drive a piston through that element. I'll stick to good 'ol paper or synthetic impregnated media thank you :-)
McMark
How many microns is a paper element? confused24.gif
Matt Romanowski
Canton Mecca is down to 8 microns.

Ah, shit. Well forget the drooley.gif then. Make it a barf.gif

Mark , I meant the link to show their billet filter mounts that take a screw on filter of choice, I like their's because they use the oringed AN fittinge instead of the standard pipe thread.

sorry you got caught eyeballing the racer stuff.
