Description
The Mishimoto Remote Oil Filter Take-Off Plate (MMOC-FTO-M20) is the vital link for anyone relocating an oil filter away from a cramped engine bay. Engineered with the latest 3D printing and CAD modeling technology, then CNC-machined from a billet of 6061 aluminum, this take-off plate replaces your factory oil filter and opens up M22 X 1.5 ORB ports so oil can be re-routed to a remote filter location. This particular version is built with an M20 X 1.5 center adapter thread, one of several thread options Mishimoto offers to match a wide range of oil filter housings.
Relocating the oil filter is one of the simplest ways to solve issues that come from packed-in car engine parts when ground clearance, filter size, or oil-change access becomes a headache. As one of the core components of an automobile engine’s lubrication system, the oil filter take-off plate sits between the engine block and your new remote filter setup, and this Mishimoto unit is designed to make that swap simple. The M22 X 1.5 female ports are built for use with Mishimoto Remote Oil Filter Fittings, and a robust nitrile O-ring seals each connection to help keep the system leak-free. Anyone researching parts of a car engine for a relocation project will find this take-off plate CNC-machined for durability and finished for long-term corrosion resistance, backed by the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty.
Vehicle Applications
This Oil Filter Take-Off Plate is offered with an M20 X 1.5 center adapter thread, one of the multiple thread sizes Mishimoto produces so the take-off plate can be matched to the oil filter housing already found on your vehicle. Because it is designed to fit most standard oil filter housings rather than a single make or model, it suits a broad range of applications wherever a relocated oil filter system is desired on a car engine. Completing a full remote oil filter installation also requires a Mishimoto Remote Oil Filter Mount, Mishimoto Remote Oil Filter Fittings, and Mishimoto Braided Oil Lines, all sold separately.
