I have moved my oil filter to a remote, however I need a shorter one. Is there an alternative to the standard RV8. Idealy needs to be about 1" shorter.
Many thanks
Barrie

Oil filter on the Ford V6 in the S series is the same fitting as the RV8 and needs to be a "short one", few suggestions on this thread.

Yes Sierra Cosworth one. I think it was the early 2 door cossy one you need. The later 4 x 4 ones specified a larger filter.
However - I may have this the wrong way around so don't take my work for it.....!
