[Tigers] Oil Filter Adapters

[Smit, Theo]

Those are similar (or the same) as the ones that Dale sells. I found that the
large nut/bolt hex still interfered with the header tube on my Tiger... so I
made yet another different adapter that has an internal mounting arrangement
that still allows you to clock the adapter to any angle. I also machined the
in/outlets at a 30 degree outboard angle so as to aim the hoses midway between
the frame rail and the steering linkage. I can supply pictures of the
installed thing if anyone wants... I originally bought enough material to make
two or three of these adapters but stopped after getting the first one done. I
did up partial CAD drawings on the http://www.emachineshop.com/ tools, but got
hung up on the off-angle drill/thread operation required for the 30 degree
kickout. Maybe their current toolset supports it better - I should check that
out.
