The stock Mazda ignition coils are back and down from the filter.
The remote oil filter is down in there too.

Hi all:

We used to prep Formula Fords, etc. and one time we had the remote oil
filter
stud ( which the filter screws into ) back off: nice smoke trail down
the back straight,
oil all over, and small inspection port in the block. We then started
to safety the
oil filter using a hose clamp 'round the HP-1 to attach the safety
wire to.  It would be
simplier if they have built-in safety wire holes like airplane ones...

Regards,
James

PS:  Great mailist! I can't read fast enough!

Good point. What have you done to secure the filter Chuck?

Good idea to use the hose clamp and wire on the filter. I don't have
