adaptor nipple needs torqued or the big outer gasket didnt seal or both

make sure your fliter plate is not bent in the middle and not pulling the outside edge in tight enuff..you did use a gasket on the block to plate seal correct?

one good mod is to drill 4 more holes in the plate for a total of 8 holes for the filter



My filter plate had 6 holes. I did have the gasket, BUT it was not torqed down. My engine is running smoothly now and no oil leaks. Again, thanks to everyone for helping out.

I don't even have 1/2 lift, but the other 1/2 is nitroused.
