C15 no 12 cab: oil filter mounting?

[Bob Carriere]

Would your C15 have a frame similar to the C8 and the HUP......

From Phil's posting......."As Peter points out the early location is horizontal in the frame rail on the intake and exhaust side of the engine which is the passenger side of the CMP. This location makes it a real pain to drain as the exhaust pipe is right where the oil pours out."


I have only seen this on the HUP but ...... and I have a picture! ......and once the engine is in place it is a tight hot spot to work in.

Hi Bob
Thanks for the pictures. That is definately my filter and mounting bracket, but I wasnt expecting it to be mounted horizontally. Most unusual and I agree what a mongrel to drain however I guess for the sake of authenticity thats the way it should go back.
Cheers Bob K

Hi All,
A few pictures of progress so far as requested.

Brings back some fond memories .... a period when progress is so tangible.

Cheers

Found them in the barn today...... 16 1/2 inch square one inch thick covered with a very thin linen and painted over.

Mine are all dried up as expected.

I have traces of such a pad on the hatch in my 12 cab CGT, but not above the driver
