oil filter adapter on a 454 1971 model
i replaced an oil filter adapter on my 454 with one from a small block chevy. seemed to fit alright then when i started the engine it blew the rubber seal from oil filter and oil leak occured. did i install the adapter wrong? or does it take a different adapter? i used a fram ph 30 tighten it hand tight and then anothor turn but did not put a filter wrench on itmichael n mississippi
