Yes, I bought the newer oil filter so I could change the filter when needed. The 38/39 oil filters would not let you change the filter. I did not want to mount my oil filter to the side of the head because I would have to drill and tap the holes. I was hoping that I could mount the newer filter in the same place as the old with no modifications.

My engine's mount for my oil filter is on the bottom front drivers side of my engine. I do not know the diameter of the tubes that go from my engine to my filter. Also, which tube connects to what part of my oil filter. My inserts for my oil filter are on the side and bottom of the filter. I have two plugs on the side of my engine. I'm assuming that's where the tubes will go that connect to the filter. Does the upper plugs go the the side of my filter and the bottom plug go the the bottom of my filter?

Thanks, those pictures really help.

I'm installing exhaust manifolds on my 1939 Packard Six and they are not fitting properly. My problem is the two outside studs and nuts will not fit. The four inside studs, washers, and nuts fit great; however, there is no room to fit the nuts (let alone the washers) to the outside studs. I took out the three bolts that hold the two manifolds together to get more play; still not enough room to attach the nuts. Also, there is nothing to clamp the manifold down on the two outside studs.
