    Oil line routing

    I have a 1985 FXR with a stockish Evo engine, it came with one of the V shaped oil coolers that follow the frame down tubes, anyway, I have come up with oil filter mount that mounts to the front motor mount and I was wondering about how to route the oil. Out of the oil pump, into filter, out of filter, into oil cooler, out of the cooler into oil tank?? Farmall, does that sound about right???

    That should work, make sure the oil flow goes through the filter in the proper direction.

      It would be nice to do it that way and keep your cooler from accumulating debris..

        Proper direction being into the center of the filter and out on the side??

          No! In at the side and out through the center.
