Recommended Posts

I need to fit a take off plate to the engine and a remote filter. I have been looking at the Think website, and at the mocal gear. Has anyone bought this stuff before? I dont know what size and type of thread is on a 99 2L blacktop!

Recently bought this setup from Think. Best bet is to give them a bell when you are ready to order and just get them to tell you the right thread. I'm pretty sure it'll be the 3/4" but let them confrim it.

I went for the braided hose. Expensive and an ar5e to install. Wish I'd gone for the ordinary rubber to be honest.

If it's any help, I chose the side entry filter head and mounted it to the side of the block on some unused holes (had to enlarge/ease the mountings on the remote head). Main reason for this was so I could mount the oil pressure sender on the top of the remote head. All ended up nice & neat in the end though, filter is vertical, same level as before if not slightly lower, easy access for changes, oil runs are relatively short and best of all it all clears the steering shaft!

...don't forget to ask for your discount.

...just spotted....join the club, then ask for your discount :D
