Oil Filter for Early Spitfire

["Alan Storey" <astorey@magni.berry.edu>]

Dear List,

Can anyone suggest which oil filter to use on an early Spit 
engine.  I am almost ready to try to start an 1147cc engine that has 
not been run in years.  I also have a 1979 Spitfire, and that car 
uses a filter that has a larger threaded opening.  The reference 
books I've look in don't included the early engines.   I would 
appreciate any help you can offer.
