Hi Guys , had to put the project on hold for a bit
Have ordered plates but can't find one with the correct size brass bush , I just noticed one on-line with 3/4-16UNF bush but I'm assuming that's not the right thread . Any thoughts where I should be looking for one ??
Thanks
Dave

I could dig a 2nd hand one out £20 including postage. You’re looking for a m16 bush as you call it so it takes the same oil filter.

Buying an M16 adapter would be ideal.
I struggled to find the correct threaded adapter so I made one but you need a lathe to do this.
If you use M16 threaded rod and drill the oilway through this avoids cutting the thread.

Hi GUYS just to say a big thank you . I re-ordered the sandwich plate and ordered an adaptor of the correct size ( 16mm ) from Demon Tweaks .
All fitted and works a treat . Many thanks for your advice and chat.
