The only problem with that is, the front of the block (including the oil 
filter adapter) sees pressure directly out of the pump, while the 'normal' 
position of the gauge sender sees pressure from the far end after all the 
lifters & bearings have been supplied. The results (with an accurate gauge) may 
be 30 psi higher at the front. So pressures off the filter housing will not 
relate to that of other Pantera owners with 351Cs.   FWIW- J Deryke
