1967 Coyote Gen 1 Swap Oil Filter clearance

[Adam7118]

Hey guys. I'm running into clearance issues with my gen 1 coyote (F150) Oil filter. Seems to hit the crossmember. I welded 8 cyl motor mounts 9 inches back from the cross member (followed all the instructions) and it seems like this is an issue. Has anyone been able to fit a get 1 coyote from an f150 into a 67 without a relocation kit?

Back to the top for you.
When you say you welded on your mounts, are they for the standard 302V8? And if so, is the coyote supposed to fit better that way?
Or could it benefit all around from moving the whole thing forward?
Not just for the filter, but for everything else? Although I would worry that about Radiator Clarence.

Good luck!

might need a remote oil filter/cooler. Might need a shorter oil filter.

I remote mounted my filter.
