Danny, I'm gonna say it's not allowed...what kind of car/engine/headers do you have? My 93 firebird with SBC is a tight fit but i can get the AC PF-35 oil filter in and out easy. Thanks to muskie of TOM'S pipes for fixing my hooker headers...Luke SS311

I'd take a vacuum pump, but don't let anybody else have one. LMAO

89 camaro ,350/290 hp.
Got the smallest filter i can get but still have to loosen headers to get it off...
I think it is legal in IHRA and cannot find it in the rule book so far.

I'm with you Ed ,that would be nice...

If you read Section 11A, Page 4 under Oil Pump in the rule book you will find that external connections are accepted for accumulators and remote filter. I convinced Bruce B. that most GT cars, and especially mine, could not use the original filter location with a rack and pinion under the front of the engine. He had this exception added to the book about two years ago.
