You assume correctly. :) I've only seen the oil line in the catalogs - I
was
guessing as to where it would actually attach on the car.

feed.
Is this a worthwhile mod? And does it require the spin-on filter adapter?
And one has to ask the (admittedly) silly question: Why would an engine
be designed with an oil feed restriction? Seems stupid to this uninformed
individual...
