Oil filter relocation

Finally got the new motor in and running and relocating the oil filter (72 BGT 18V motor) will make life much easier when it comes to oil changes. Anyone out there done this? I have a remote filter mount but don't have a clue about the connection on the block where the stock filter goes.
 
David Headley (FabTek) makes remote filter adpaters for B series engines. Here's a photo of one I just installed on a vintage MGB race engine, it has two ports because this car uses a accusump, you can get them with a single port as well. YOu looking at the adpater installed on a engine on the engine stand with the engine inverted on the stand.

Thanks Hap, i'll check out their website. I just relocated the coil and if I take 1 airhorn off I can reach everthing without brakeing my arm. Relocating the filter will be on the list of things to do.
