 +The oil filter bracket seals off the cam chest and provides a convenient place for a spin-on oil filter. \\ 
 +The bracket is machined for easy routing of an oil cooler in all applications and accepts the stock oil pressure sending switch. \\  
 +It does not have an oil pressure regulator built into it like the OEM filter pad does. ((A 4 liter V8 eater of the XLFORUM http://​xlforum.net/​forums/​showthread.php?​t=1359577&​page=88)) \\
