I'm having problems with the oil filter bracket. When I ordered the kit I bought the oil filter relocation bracket. Only problem is that one of the lines is too short. It comes with an extension kit but its not for the hose thats too short.
The short hose is hard line tubing from the block then rubber hose up the side of the block where it is straight hard tubing along the valve cover to the filter mount. The new bracket moves the filter forward about 4 inches but the line doesnt have enough slack to go the distance. I'm thinking about getting rid of the stock line and putting braided line and fittings on. Anybody ever had this problem? It's on a 7.4 MPI Bravo I.
