Re: Deleting oil filter on a 39 six?

Don would know how much room is needed with his canister but if the filter is fairly close under the generator it may be difficult to have clearance to get the lid off and lift the element out to change a filter. 39SixSedanMan's suggestion of a bracket on the head studs with a drop down section to mount a later canister above the generator sounds like a pretty good idea. Some angle iron should do the job.

The above generator filter location was used from 40 thru 54 so you could make a convincing argument that at some later date a dealer selling a factory kit available at the time could have installed a filter using that method. The later filters are relatively easy to find.
