There are adapters for spin-on filters that can be plumbed to a stovebolt engine, but they would have to be modified with a restrictor orfice with about a 1/16" hole in it to control the rate of flow. Using a regular full flow filter in place of the canister-type bypass filter would starve the engine for lubrication and engine life would be measured in minutes. The filter media would also be way too free-flowing to do much good compared to the right filter. There are spin-on hydraulic oil filters with about the correct micron rating to replace the bypass filter, but the price would probably be about the same as the canister filter element.
