    Early Nailhead Oil Filter relocation plate.

    Got the first run of these going. I'll eat the shipping in the lower 48 for the first run. $85.00 These fit Nailheads 53-60 264/322/364/401 The 61-66 plates will be along shortly. All facets of this project were done in the USA.

    Order them right here

    I used a later spin filter housing and put it on my 57-364--if I remember correctly only three bolt holes line up but it sealed fine. The filter angle changed from stock but I don`t think it interfered with anything---I think I got my filter housing off a 61---worth looking into

    Not if there is not room. The 364 in my '60 International there is no room for a spin right there. Same goes when you put a Nailhead in a lot of different vehicles.

    Didn`t want to offend anyone but I thought you were talking BUICKS not other cars with nailheads in them---for stock use I think the later spin-on will work for most applications and can be bought for cheaper at the bone yards. It`s good that you are making your parts for other brand X cars with nailheads---much overlooked engine for street rods----Good Luck

    oil filter relocation plate or spin on adaptor

    I have an adaptor on my 322 can't get it to stop leaking a drop or 2. I don't want to go back to cansiter . Will the 364 or later oil filter housings work on a 322? Or is the relocation plate a better way to go?

    One of the reasons I made these, the old style like the Ansen I have are junk, don't line up with the orifices and don't come with a gasket. Mine will accept the stock gasket and line up correctly.
