Oil filter question

I can't seem to find any info on a full flow oil filter kit for a Ford six flathead. Does such a thing even exist?

Never heard of one. Seems like it would be easy to convert, with the pump outside the block, if you had a machine shop at your disposal.

Thanks, you make it sound simple. Wonder if there would be a market for such a kit?

Well, the market won't support water pumps for those engines, so I tend to doubt it.

It wouldn't be "real" easy; take the pump output off the end plate, plug the existing pump output, run thru a filter then back in thru the oil pressure sender hole.
