I like the BB mount. I loosen the filter a little, then wrap two small garbage bags around the filter, and then spin off. Rarely a mess if I do my part correctly. Exactly how I have done it.
Ok

The longer the lines, the more important it is to use only big fittings and port the housing. The inside of some of those castings is really crude, you'll know immediately where it needs work. I'm surprised more shops don't offer this as a service, low precision (1mm is good enough to make a difference), just a good grasp of where the fluid wants to go. I port my oil pump bodies too. With the extra time delay for OP to reach the whirly bits, I'd like to see a small number before the "W" in the oil. I'm running 5W40 (instead of factory 10W30). Yes, it slows down the hot idle speed slightly (think of an electric fan in a bathtub filled with Jello instead of water), and I may have lost a HP or 5. My peace of mind is worth it!

That is a big waste of money, time and also adds unessecary weight.
The 80s called and want thier dual remote filter setup back.
Planning on running a cool can too? : p

This should read "the longer the lines the more you have wasted money, time and space. This modification is less effective than fuzzy dice" Lol i will stop now.

I USE the Peterson remote mount with the pump on top. You add one line from the pan to the remote mount and you can prelube your engine before start up. It pricey , but I prelube my engine with a cordless drill everytime I roll it out of the trailer.

FWIW I remover the Moroso 3 qt accumulator and the duel filter deal almost 2 years ago when I went on a Lee La Lane diet and lost a total of 200 lbs.

I went the other way with my stuff and now I use the mini oil filter from Dodge. It fits better with plenty of room around it and it is easy to change without making a mess.

That looks like alotta UNneeded weight LOL... your talking weight and your running a big heavy blower in a street rod.. myself I mount the filter where ever its easy to get at on my SB junk.. I'll take the extra weight on my street stuff... even on my BB 38 street rod I moved it up to the front so it was easy to get at and I do use big lines on it

That looks like alotta UNneeded weight I agree, all weight is bad, but the real difference in position is 16' (8' + 8') of #10 braided hose, plus the benefit to me for road race track car, its all low, and its all towards the rear for improved balance. Everything is a compromise.
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
