I would plumb the Accusump into the oil filter adapter (Oil Cooler Lines) See Item #3, #4 and #5 Engine Oil Pressure/Oil Cooler/Temperature Sensors

The Top Oil Cooler Line going to the Oil Cooler comes directly from the Oil Pump. I would T into that line as that line is open to the oil filter directly through the Oil Temperature Control Valve Spool in the Oil Filter Adapter.

See LT5 Pressure Drop In Oil Lines Calculations

I was working on a Billet Aluminum Remote Oil Filter Adapter a while back and had it sized to fit under passenger side headlight (I think I was relocating the coolant overflow). The Design was for Dual Oil Filters. I was working on a System that would NOT Drain Back but still easy to change filters without a mess. All the drilling sizes are specified for Tapping once received for male pipe and straight "O" ring fitting adapters.

That Remote Oil Filter Adapter I Designed fit in place of the present Oil Filter. Had SS Braided Oil Lines going down to the Billet Aluminum Remote Dual Oil Filter Housing Adapter. Now that I think of it......I think I left the Coolant Overflow in place and positioned the Remote Oil Filter Housing Adapter where my Secondary Pump was previously located (Since Removed).........Or......moved existing Coolant Overflow Tank where Vacuum Pump was located and positioned Billet Dual Oil Filter Housing Adapter in place of Coolant Overflow Tank.

Oil Filter Adapter fits on existing Oil Filter Housing


Dual Oil Filter Housing Adapter fits in area under Passenger Headlight


Specifications for LT5 Oil Filter Adapter
All Cuts and Drills are from the original surface of the Billet and located on the longitudinal centerline of the Billet. The Billet (aluminum) for the Adapter is 3.75 inches outside diameter and 4 inches long. The Front, Right, Back, and Left surfaces are at 0 deg, 90 deg, 180 deg, and 270 deg counterclockwise around the Billet.
1. Top - .125 radius outer diameter.
2. Top – Drill ½ inch x 3.6 inch deep from top surface of Billet (3 each) center of each hole 1 inch from center of Billet (one at 90 deg, one at 180 deg, one at 270 deg).
3. Top – Drill 23/32 inch x 1 inch deep from top surface of Billet (second drill of item 2 above) (3 each)
4. Bottom – Cut 2-1/8 inch diameter x .51 inch deep from bottom surface of Billet on center of Billet.
5. Bottom - Drill 29/32 inch x 1.51 inch deep from bottom surface of Billet on center of Billet.
6. Bottom - O Ring groove 2-7/16 inch ID x 2-13/16 inch OD x .130 deep from bottom surface and on center of Billet.
7. Front - Drill 23/32 inch x 3 inches deep center located 1 inch from top surface of Billet.
8. Front - Machine flat .3 inches from top surface of Billet 1.4 inches high and 1.25 inches wide with maximum depth at center of .1 inch
9. Left - Drill 13/16 inch x 3 inches deep center located 1 inch from top surface of Billet.
10. Left - Drill 63/64 inch x 1 inch deep center located 1 inch from top surface of Billet.
11. Left - Drill 13/16 inch x 2.1 inch deep center located 2.75 inch from top surface of Billet.
12. Left - Drill 63/64 inch x 1 inch deep center located 2.75 inch from top surface of Billet.
13. Left – Machine flat .2 inches from top surface of Billet 3.35 inches high and 1.25 inches wide with maximum depth at center of .1 inch.
14. Top Adapter – Engraved LT5.
LT5 engraving (on the Top) – Letters are 1/16 inch deep and .1 inch wide x .5 inch high

Note: The Drill depths cited are NOT to the tip of the drill bit but to where the drill bit tapers to the tip. A Drill depth for a 29/32 Drill would actually be approximately .26 deeper to the tip of the drill bit than the drill depths cited. A Drill depth for a 23/32 Drill would actually be approximately .20 deeper to the tip of the drill bit than the drill depths cited. A Drill depth for a ½ Drill would actually be approximately .14 deeper to the tip of the drill bit than the drill depths cited. All Drill depths are from the surface of the 3.75 diameter Billet.

Note: The Drill depth is NOT to the tip of the drill bit but to where the drill bit tapers to the tip. A Drill depth for a 29/32 Drill would actually be approximately .26 deeper to the tip of the drill bit. A Drill depth for a 23/32 Drill would actually be approximately .20 deeper to the tip of the drill bit. A Drill depth for a ½ Drill would actually be approximately .14 deeper to the tip of the drill bit. All Drill depths are from the surface of the 3.75 diameter Billet.
