Hi Jorge, I don't think you want to do that. I have a Smitty spin-on
adapter and a Smitty oil cooler adapter that is sandwiched between the
block and the spin-on piece. If I were to plug the oil hose ports, then
that would stop all oil flow. My oil cooler piece diverts flow before
the inlet side of the filter, routes it thru the oil cooler radiator
hose first, then into back thru the other hose to the filter. Maybe
there are others out there...???

Subject: [Healeys] Spin-on oil filter adapter
I'd like to convert my BJ8 to use spin-on oil filters but I also would
like to add an oil cooler in the near future. Can I get an adapter that
would allow me to use the spin-on oil filter and block the oil line
ports until I add the oil cooler?
Thanks
Jorge Garcia
