Big Yellow Taxi came and took my Baby away.

Well, it wasn't exactly a taxi - it was a Toyota pick-up and it was black. The '283' is off to the shop for 14 days. Now I've got to get on the stick. T350 to the tranny shop, new coolant lines and cast pan included.

Does anybody have any experience with the old mid-60's style canister oil filters? And can they be modified to run a regular spin-on filter?
