I installed a mechanical oil pressure gauge in my 77 Chevy truck maybe 20 years ago with the plastic line,to my complete surprise is hasn't busted yet..
Tthats what im going to use on a 98 mustang cobra with a oil cooler. Was wondering if anyone had used this kit. Glad to see it works for you. I was just going without the oil cooler thats on cobras. Dont think i would have used a plasic oil line. Only metal but nice job other wise. Glad theres no leaks. There on ebay for the kit around 100 dollars. Nice job.
Did my MK8 relocation, braced engine and dropped k-member, replaced power steering lines, moved battery to trunk (opposite side from panthers) and used welding cables, replaced expansion tank with meile tanks, used cantor plate, pulled oil pan and replaced gasket (was leaking) put oil filter and oil cooler where battery was, rotated power distribution for clearances - a year later neighbor ran into it and totaled 🤦♂️
Rich, you're a CT!!!.....Yep, you are. A 100% total Car Tease! LOL....gotcha, thought I was gonna say something else, didn'tcha? Good video bud, not sure it's something most DIYers would want to tackle but it certainly shows how sometimes planned installations change on the fly.
Wow what a pain. Why couldn’t someone make a spin on adapter like we had in the old days. I absolutely hated doing oil changes on those fords that had the oil filter right above the rack. Always made a mess and had to spend more time cleaning it up than the time it took to change the oil
Here is the knock off it you will have to do some sourcing on, such as the Oil Filter Adapter - it's 13/16x16 in the adapter and out of the adapter - it's hard to find it both ways because most are 13/16x16 inside and m22 x 1.5 outside the plate and it's difficult to find a filter wide enough to take this mounting base Check this out! a.co/d/gsuwe4s
Boss, I might have used some woven wire lume , and ran the zip tie through it around that hose, might be to sharp on the edges with that hot water running through it, But I'm only a ? looks good.
I’m going to be Installing this kit on my 97 cobra mine has the factory oil cooler so I’m deleting all that. What size hose barb fitting works for the stock hose they have a 1.5 and 1.75 also what motorcraft filter works with the filter housing
Oil pumps usually are at the front of the engine. To initially build pressure the oil has to move to the rear of the oil galleries before pressure goes up. Pressure begins from the rear of engine to the front. Engines have been found to have more wear on the front bearings
What is on yours now? Is it a FL 500 or a FL 820? The FL 820s have a m22x1.5 thread pitch so you would have to find a filter that has the same base plate but just longer
This Is Not Related To This Video I Apologize But I Have A Question Regarding a 2016 Ford Fusion SE 2.0 I Have A Code It’s A P0234 Turbocharger/Supercharger Overboost Condition Can You Help Me Figure Out What It Is That I Need To Buy & Replace So That I Can Get My Check Engine Light Turned Off Thank You
Yep I don't think you went to the library to look at the turbo videos that I did already You can either have a turbo problem or you could have a solenoid boost control problem
Great vid as always; the Panther Platform is a great setup. I saw you had a bottle of that ATS 505 CRO that is being pushed moderately by another RUclipsr. I’m looking forward to your review. My engine is still not leaking oil, but bank one is all over the place with LTFT; 6.2 to 10.4 and sometimes it will go to 12.4! I’m using a BlueDriver scanner. I know it ain’t the best out there but it did help with an improperly fastened air filter assembly that gave the engine a MASSIVE vacuum leak. Bank two is a happy camper; -1.6 to 0.0. I checked for vacuum leaks on that side and I don’t see any. I’m a bit frustrated at bank one….could it be one or more injectors are just worn at 230,000 plus miles? I’m using Shell and Chevron hoping it will clean the injectors and that’s that, but if not, then I’m going to have my truck hooked to a Ford Fortran scanner to see what is going on. I’m thinking about trying the ATS 505 CRF, or just run some BG 44K through my engine, but if that doesn’t work, I need to have my engine diagnosed PROPERLY to see what is going on. I really wish I could bring my truck to you, but it not possible right now. Thank you for all you do. Stay Blessed!
I think I have a clue to what is happening to bank one. The PCV is different than my 99 truck. This thing is LIQUID COOLED! It looks like something out or a Stat Wars movie; it has arms that attach to hoses. I replaced it when I first purchased the truck; and I did break the head off of on of the two EXTREMELY WEAK self tapping screws. It was secure, so I didn’t think I needed to back the screw out of the assembly. Bank one is the side this thing is attached to. So I will start there.
My 1999 Honda CR-V 4cyl has a nightmare p.i.t.a. oil filter location. I wish I could find a relocation kit myself to install just like Rich. I'm to the point on that CR-V where I just drain and refill engine oil and skip changing the filter. Between twisting my arm into 3 different shapes - getting oil drained on my face and burned plus almost ripping the O2 wires to fit oil filter wrench in tight space. Yea, definitely need a relocation kit or just give up doing it myself and take the chance at a jiffy lube going forward.
I’ve got 6,000 miles on my oil and it looks newer than your 2,000 miles on your oil. Guessing it’s because I have a Amsoil Bypass system on my 2000 7.3.
@@FordBossMe damn,,the old 350 ran maybe 30psi at temp and about 2k rpms ,the plastic line doesn't seem to mind the constant 60psi,,,but I still worry about it the older it gets.
ok, i watched the whole video and have read YOUR comments. my question, why an aftermarket filter kit for Ford/Mercury products with a Chevrolet (GM) oil filter "base"? you said 13/16x16 threads and by the detailed oil filter list, GM filter base. this kit you installed looks good design even if you had to get some parts. you ARE right, even in southside Virginia i have to order the wix 51061 or 51060/napa 1060 because not always stocked. in the past, Perma-cool and other companies (i'm not sure about Amsoil filter kits) used a Ford style base FL1A filter for the add on transmission filter or remote oil filter kits.
And I have answered all of your questions on this already and you literally asked some of the same questions over again that I already answered The O-ring for the oil filter needs to be as wide as the base in order for it to seal correctly Ford doesn't have one that's this wide of a base
Also I have already explained why the aftermarket filter kit if you said you read the comments then you did not actually do what you said you did because that has been addressed so I'm not going to put any more time into your comment because it's only going to frustrate me because you're trying to I'm not sure if you're trying to get under my skin or if you're just frustrated trying to understand but I'm not going to dump time into something that somebody says they already did the research on and you didn't

Awesome upgrade and installation! I would probably leave the gauge under the hood and add a T for the A pillar gauge line. Well done Rich!
Love the video, I'm about to put one on my mustang. Great video

Tight Fit right there. Came out pretty good.
Smooth Rich…. Smooth👍👍
Sounds like the old girl just rolled off the lot.
Great to see things working out for you.
Cheers.
Thanks 👍
I know a mechanic that plugged up the bypass on his oil filter. He didn’t want unfiltered oil going back to the engine.

Nice job making it work. Looks great 👍
Nice work Rich
Thanks 👍
I’m a panther platform fan myself. I miss mine. It rusted out. If I could get another crown Vic interceptor I would. I miss my 04.
I hardly ever see any for sale around here. There is one in Van Wert, OH on a lot but it's a Grand Marquis.
Chinesium kit 😅glad it worked 😊because being cheated is a bad feeling 😮
You gotta put a higher (3200) stall converter in one of the panthers and do a before and after.
I was literally just thinking that
I have a 2005 Ford Expedition with a remanufactured 5.4 engine and the oil filter location is different between the two engines
Boss, I might have used some woven wire lume , and ran the zip tie through it around that hose, might be to sharp on the edges with that hot water running through it, But I'm only a ? looks good.
We are not done with the final touches sit tight everyone lol

Oil pumps usually are at the front of the engine. To initially build pressure the oil has to move to the rear of the oil galleries before pressure goes up. Pressure begins from the rear of engine to the front. Engines have been found to have more wear on the front bearings
That's why I preached that it's important to keep these engines flushed out
Good job
Ever came across a way or tool kit to make and bend your own radiator hoses to the perfect size and contours?
No
Did you use a gasket or just rely on the o rings
I used the kit how it came
4.6 L mods really rev me up 😎 . I want to run a bigger filter for more volume, any suggestions? 2008 E150 4.6L 2v

I don't know about anyone else but I feel like to really understand this I would need to see it in person.
Same flow?
Better flow
Bigger capacity
More filtering capability
I'm an idiot please explain why we would need to relocate the oil filter?
It's tucked in next to the engine in a undesirable spot, these factory housings leak and you get oil all over the steering rack when changing the oil

Competition Much?
Might want to add some protection over that larger hose so gravel etc doesn’t do anything nasty to it
But obviously I said it was temporary though
@@FordBossMe I must have forgotten
A proper coolant line would be a nice addition to the proper kit..
This works just fine
I can't pull a freaking rabbit out of a hat
@@FordBossMe you did a fine job with what you had,,,the hose that probably doesn't exist would have been nice.
And a melling high pressure oil pump 60psi
Well this is 82 to 84 PSI
