I have a 1986 Chevy 350 which I would like to install an oil filter on.
However, I'm a bit confused about the sandwich adapters.
I know that the adapter needs to have the same thread size as the oil filter for the car. For example, my oil filter is a 13/16 inch -16 thread size, so I would get an adapter like this one...correct?
On that adapter it says it has a 3 1/2 inch O-Ring. Does the new oil filter I install need to be a 3 1/2 inch outside diameter?
If I am wrong here, feel free to correct me. Thanks for any info! A detailed explanation of all of this would be greatly appreciated!
