One more before I go to bed. The roadster has a oil filter block on it with some modern hot rod braided stainless lines going to it. Can I replace these with tubing? Nothing flexes on this and I would like to tone it down a bit so it doesn't look so out of place.

What is your preference if you have a Burtz Block engine. Yes, an oil filter or no oil filter?12-22-2021, 04:36 PM -
My 12 year old grandson is going to assist me this weekend in changing Little Bug Eye's oil and filter. She has the A-6705-F full flow oil filter kit in Snyder's catalog. Do I need to prefill this filter when changing the oil? Pour a couple quarts down the distributor hole? Or is there some other precautionary procedure that is needed to prevent any dry running at first?09-30-2021, 05:45 PM -
Modifying a line from Shakespeare, I ask all you many experts out there: is there an oil filter kit that you would recommend?
I have heard from people in my club NOT to install one because there is not enough oil pressure in a Model A engine to successfully use a filter without robbing pressure.
Please educate me. I know that Paul Shinn uses one but won’t recommend any...06-17-2021, 11:59 AM -
Here is a YouTube video of an A owner in Germany adding an oil filter. A bit long but you can flash FWD a bit to where he gets the timing plate modification. Anyone else use these?

Well, looks like my next rebuild is a B diamond block. Now, kinda knowing how the oil system is changed on the B engine, anyone have a simple way to full flow oil filter the B system?
Pictures or drawings would really be nice.

I haven't done any improvements to my oil pump system but I am always in favor of a filter on an oil system. To me I'd like to put one on my 31 engine but I am having a hard time convincing myself it's going to work with such low oil pressure yes I believe it has the volume but will it actually have the ability to push the oil through a pleated spin on filter. Would you need a check valve in the filter...01-11-2021, 01:01 PM -
Well, since there were no responses on the Modified side guess I'll ask this here.
I would like to place a full flow oil filter on a B block, even knowing how the oiling works. I would like to use anyone else's experience before applying what I already know.
Little help from my friends...01-07-2021, 08:51 PM -
Mac's Auto Parts offers an oil filter adaption for the model A engine. Please comment on your experience/knowledge of adapting to the Model A engine. Is it a good idea?
Thank you,

I am using the stock flatty filter for the first time on my new engine. While cleaning it up I find only one very small hole in the inner tube about an inch from the top. Should there be more? I also have the restriction fitting at the canister inlet. These holes sure do seem to be small.
Look forward to the answers so I can move on.
