    I use a shorter filter in my jet boat as well due to clearance reasons.....If you look up one for a mopar slant 6 I believe it is the same pad dimensions as the Motorcraft FL-1A except it is shorter.

    I used the FRPP 90° adapter and kept the FL1A. Just an idea. I had the same issue with my manifold.

    How does the crossover fit?

    just to clarify,this is a kit for a 302? would have thought the headers would be a lot closer to the strut towers.. looks like it fits well from those pics..I'm sure the crossover would have to be lengthened

    not a bad looking kit

    Well when I ordered the kit it had 5.0 & 5.8.. but I emailed The seller and ask him would it fit a 351 Windsor he said he wasn't sure and when I went back to the ad it just had 5.0 on it..
