I'll tell you right now, I bought a kit for the Contour. I wanted to keep my original filter and cooler b/c I thought they were the most efficient, plus I had to stay within budget. Well, the kit was for a ZETEC, not a Duratec. Terry had a machine shop make some modifications to my oil filter boss, combined with a non-SVT oil filter boss for the whole thing to work properly. He is actually trying to design some sort of kit for anyone that wants to buy this. The way the relocation head worked on my car is this, the plate adapter is on the block, then two hoses goes to the relocation head. On the head is the SVT OE cooler, then the oil filter. Simple, yet efficient. But, behind the scenes there was a great deal of work involved to make it all work correctly so I can retain my stock oil filter. Easy to change the oil, and easy to buy a new filter.
I understand Chris. One question for you: why didnt you order the high pressure hose for the Accusump? Also, You may in the future install quick disconnect fittings for that "just in case" moment or for cleaning purposes.
Overall, I think your setup is very nice.
