Default Relocating the stock oil system- need help!

I unbolted the oil cooler from the block and replacing it with an oil relocating system.
On the left, is the stock oil cooler and the male fittings. The stock fitting size is 21mm x 1.50 pitch (black fitting).
On the right is my relocating oil system along with the fittings. However, the fitting is only 20mm x 1.50 pitch.
The M21 x 1.50 pitch seems to be an odd ball here in the U.S. I google and can't find this size except in Europe.
Appreciate if anyone can help.

You can get the stubby fitting from Honda

Much oblidge sir....


Another question if you don't mind,
I took the oil cooler out, can I use this http://www.racerpartswholesale.com/p...Sandwich_Plate instead of my orange sandwich plate in the picture?
I like to have a thermostat build in, is mocal only a sandwich plate and I have to put back my stock oil cooler? I like to delete my stock oil cooler and fit it with a remote one.
Thank you

Yes, MOCAL p/n MOC-SP1FT is the correct adapter for our cars. Many of us use the Mocal reliably. The Mocal has a built in 180 deg thermostat; you do not have to reinstall the stock oil cooler (only the stubby oil filter holder adapter).


...however, weren't you looking for an oil filter relocation kit?

I already have the oil filter relocation kit that came from the orange plate. I can still use it.
The mocal with thermostat will simplify my installation. I'm taking the stock oil cooler because my Rotrex supercharger
will not fit. I have to delete my oil cooler + the filter and replace it with a thin mocal and relocate the filter somewhere.
This is going to a Lotus 7 type car.

edit...
oppps, I think I'm missing something here. In that mocal unit, i need to put my oil filter back in the same stock place?
if it is, then it's not gonna work. I have to relocate my filter to fit the supercharger.

You should be able to use the kit you have now and just add the Mocal plate from above to the remote mount you have. Another option is this Greddy remote mount with thermostat built in. With this you would just use the plate from your kit to pull off the block and the Greddy unit would combine the mount and thermostat.
