GTM Oil Filter Relocation Kit
Hi guys, I have a GTM Stg 2 supercharger, and I've just developed a leak at the oil filter relocation kit. Can't seem to find any kit that looks like it out there on the market as I'm worried about fitment since the blower is right next to the kit so clearance will be tight. A few questions:
1) I assume GTM didn't actually make the relocation kit, so if it's someone else's part, do you guys know who I can buy it from directly? 2) If not, it looks like the main seal on it, a thick rubber gasket with two ridges, appears to be the culprit. Anyone know where I can find a gasket like this? 3) If I can't, any harm in using a high temp RTV silicone gasket on top of this gasket (it's thick so I can't just use the RTV silicone to replace the rubber gasket) and letting it get tacky and then reinstalling it? Thanks again!

Actually, looks like it could be a dual ring, will order a few and let you guys know in case anyone also runs into this...

I had the same issue a year back. I bought buna high temp oil 0-ring off MC-mastercar; has been working great since. I think it was part number 1283N346, but i would measure and double check. You shouldn't have a hard time find one.

Thanks, I ended up buying extra O-rings off MC as well for the other gaskets, but for the main one, I ended up buying this one. Looks pretty similar...

Yeah, that one I linked from Pegasus racing is the one you should use. I also replaced the other seals as well. Where in CA are you located?
