Hi David

I sell oil filters for a living and a diesel mechanic by trade.  My
suggestion is go the easy way.  Most aero engines have a short hourly life
in home builds between this and that needing some kind of repair and will go
the distance without oil filters.  When the engines fail mechanically it's
to late for oil filters anyway.

All,
I've been working on the engine. I have Jerry Hey's Dynofocal engine mount.
Seems real tight to the fire wall. I have an o-320 E2D that came with a spin
on oil filter. It does not have clearance to the firewall. I also got an
airwolf remote, but the hose fittings run into the clearance problem as
well.
What should I do:
1. Put on an old oil screen? (Does anyone have one?)
2. Build a new engine mount?
3. Remake the gas tank and firewall so I have a pocket.
4. ????

Happy Holidays!
