My original finally gave up the ghost. I've put a hose washer and a 9/16" flat washer on top of that. On idle and about 35# pressure it's OK but at speed and 45# it leaks. When I tighten it down more, the washer flattens out past the steel flat washer. If I use a modern remote spin on filter, I'm assuming I should use the stock size hoses to keep the pressure up. Am I thinking right? Thanks for your help guys! web page

would work.

It may not be correct, but at least I'm on the road 'till I get the right stuff.
BTY, it's a 235 stovebolt with the '59 AC oil filter canister.
