        I own a '67 TR4A IRS, and I am currently installing a new/rebuilt 
engine which I ordered from the Roadster Factory (new block and Head).  
My question concerns the oil filter.  I was considering changing the 
stock configuration by installing one of those spin on adaptors that 
allow you to use a modern filter rather than the cartridge type.  I 
thought that this would make oil chages cleaner and easier, thus 
encouraging me to do them more frequently.  But I have heard grumblings 
that doing this might prove harmfull to my engine in the long run 
(through constricted oil flow I suppose).  Does anyone have any 
experience and/or comments regarding this subject?  Thank you in advance.

        P.S. I am new to this list.  What are LBC's and SOL's?
