Alternator Oil Filter Install Land Rover Series 2A Scotty GM Chevy Mercruiser engine swap restore

[@merykjenkins3274]

Another great video Cory. I've been toying with the idea of switching to alternator power AND spin on oil filter. Certainly some good stuff here!

Thank you Sir! I put a spin on oil filter adapter to my LR engine. Definitely makes it easier and work fine. Atlantic British and Rocky Mountain makes kits. I used the AB version but the RM version looks nicer.

Looks great! Can’t wait to see how the rover drives with the additional HP! Well done!

@@Rovertube thank you Sir! Hope she’s a strong runner!

Very slick oil filter adapter installation.👌The alternator does look a little close to the exhaust manifold. Maybe slide a small heat shield in between.🧐 This engine should work so well in the Landy! Similar RPM range with about 50 more horsepower. With the long stroke, it should have a ton of torque, but hopefully not so much as to strain the rest of the drive train. Great project!👍 I think I’m looking forward to the first drive almost as much as you are.lol

I agree, I’m going to be monitoring ALT temps. If the exhaust heats up the alternator I will make a shield. I agree again. I’m hoping the engine gives it a steady power that’s not crazy. When it’s actually running I’ll do a driving video.

That's a very neat install! - I do agree with the comment suggesting a heat shield for the alternator, but it could be quite a fiddly thing to achieve.

Thank you Sir! I agree, I’m going to be monitoring ALT temps. If the exhaust heats up the alternator I will make a shield. I’ll make a shield and it’ll be another thing to rattle while driving. Ha ha!!
