After not working on my 9A w/13B since 2008, I finally have some time to make progress on it and bought $600 worth of hoses and fittings and started building out the oil AN hose runs yesterday. I had never decided where to place the oil filter pad, so I put the lower cowling on and began looking for an open spot and decided the best place was on the right side of the engine mount where the hose from the Mazda oil radiator could easily be routed, as well as the final run up to the aluminum block (where the original filter pad used to be). Nice to be finally figuring things out and get closer to starting it for the first time in the future!
