Bruce,

Try www.dalesresto.com and refer to the parts link.  I don't have any
personal experience with Dale's adapter, but the description says:

"10026 Oil Filter Adapter Billet aluminum, fits all headers $125.00"

Most importantly, this adapter is made specifically for the Tiger!

Dale is a great guy with a solid reputation (this may be old news to you).

Good luck,
Shaun

I've recently had to rebuild my 260 because of a dead cylinder.  While it
was out I spent the money to do it right.  Rhoades lifters, roller tips,
hotter cam, and headers from Sunbeam Specialties.  Rick assured me that no
dimpleing would be required so I had them ceramic coated.

I have tried 3 separate remote oil filter relocators, TD performace adapter,
TD performance 90 degree, and today just got a canton 90 degree adapter.
only problem is none of these will fit with the headers.  the TD performance
90 degree almost fits but I have an exhaust leak becuase the header just
barely sits on it.

Can anyone recomend a fix or adapter that will work better for me?

Thanks,
