engine stand oil pressure ck

engine on stand, finishing up overhaul, it would be nice to put the specialty tool down the distributor hole, spin the pump and ck pres and topside circulation, but on this 1986 w/460 eng I would have to put an oil filter to the block to hold pressure but i would need a adaptor/male threads at both ends and then screw on an oil filter.

Does one exit or other options?

A very common item. see FORD 7.5L/460 Parts and Accessories - SummitRacing.com

By what's written in red, it sounds like you need the threaded adapter that screws into the block?

This guy?




If that's the case, you'll have to get one out of another block, but usually the threads are wrecked taking them out because of how tight they are put in.
