Title: 1955 cadillac oil lines
Post by: anthony burr on August 12, 2006, 06:30:25 PM
i have a 1955 cadillac. my engine has recently been rebuilt. i am unsure where the 2 brass oil lines connect to the remote oil filter cannister. ie does the oil line from the engine that is at the bottom of the shaft where the cap (where you pour new oil in ) go to the top or the bottom of the oil filter cannister.
regards
anthony

Anthony,

Glad to hear things are coming together on your project.  Ive got a spare engine on a stand and can get a good picture for you in the next couple of days if nobody has yet responded.  

Chris.
