Don't get your hopes up too high.

Works well for rather simple pieces, but I tried to get a quote for an
oil-filter-adapter (adapter is supposed to fit between the original
oil-filter mount and the filter. The adapter feeds the filter with a line
from a remote electric pump - pre-luber from Buly!!)
When I finally had it ready they said they don't have the machining
capability "at this time" :)
This was about 1/2 year ago. I will try again soon!

Buly, would you have any shop to do an adapter? Non of the aftermarket stuff
works ( Toyota 4Runner Turbo Diesel). I guess I could get the e-machineshop
drawing printed or converted to somethig another shop could use....
