I have a 63 Valiant that i put v8 273 in and i was wondering,I put doug's headers on it what the best way to put the oil filter adapter on it from the bottom or the top.Thank's for any help.
I just put the header on and left it loose so i could have some movement and still don't know the best wayIts a *****. May be easist to unbolt the header. It can be done with it on.

Can i take the header off together Part off it goes on from the bottom and the slip joint's from the top and i put silicone on them like it saidafter the manifold is off, but before the header goes on.

If i could get both hand's in there to hold the gasket in place would it be best just to take the header back off and just start over and put the adapter on then the header back on.??That is what I did although I am running TTI headers . I had to use a jack just lifting the engine a bit to give the header a bit more wiggle room. The problem I had was to get a wrench in to tighten the 1 1/8 bolt holding the 90 degree adapter tight.

Yea my instruction's don't say anything either do you think i could drop down and let it rest on the header and then work from the bottom and silicone the gasket's so it will stay in place.Thank's for your help.I found the instructions. They don't address the adapter.
