Default Best Remote Oil Filter kit

Several kits out there and I was wondering which ones those who've done would recommend or avoid?

Thanks.

Milodon but not cheap by the time you buy the remote with hoses then the adapter required on the right side of the screen. Mr. Gasket is much cheaper. Used it on a couple of cars. Depending on where you plan to mount the filter you may need longer hoses. You can use braided lines with AN fittings to the custom length you need. It would suck to buy that Milodon then find out you need longer hoses than what come with it. I put a Mr. Gaket on a Ford F150 that has the filter STUPIDLY mounted at an angle on the front drivers side of the engine. I bought the Mr. Gasket kit. Decided where i wanted to mount it on the frame. Measured the length lines i needed and had a shop make them. Cut me a nice price on them. Worked great never leaked and made changing the oil a breeze.

I used Canton pieces and made my own line with AN fittings and an eBay oil front mount cooler. Make sure you flush the cooler BEFORE you install it.

Thanks Guys. I thinking I'll get something similar to the Mr. Gasket just to get the adapter and remote filter fixture and then custom make the hoses. definitely want steel braid.
