Frogger2662 Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 Need opinions on a remote oil filter install. Thinking of installing a remote oil filter on my 84 f150 with a 5.0. What size hose do you think I should use to connect the block to the filter housing? I am looking to use hydraulic hose to do the install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Lewis Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 Big Blue's 460 has a remote oil cooler so I used this Hayden Automotive 112 Engine Oil Cooler Hose from Amazon. However other places call it automatic transmission cooler hose. In any event, it is designed for hot oil and it is working well. And it is 1/2" ID.
